Replaced all the gravel with sand yesterday and i put all of my tropical fish in a bucket... The water looks slightly cloudy but can i add some fish in now?

That is how it looks right now... I used my filter to speed up the bacteria process...
I have these fish in my bucket right now :
1 red blue columbian tetra
1silver dollar
2 guppies
5 platies
3 millies
3 emerald cories
1 senegal bichir (will go in my 55 gallon)
1 pangasius catfish (will go in my 55 gallon then sell him) (hes under 2")
.....
So if i can add some fish now , which ones?
 
Assuming the tank is properly cycled, I think you can put then all in there. At least a cycled tank will be better than buckets. :)
 
Yes you can add them back in, though you should have by now ;) A bit of dust in the water from the sand won't harm your fish. Test the parameters more frequently to watch for mini cycling.
