May have done this wrong I put sand I'm new tank and all water is merKy and I ran very due to sand will this ssettle
 
Dd you thoroughly wash the sand ? And what kind of sand ?

I used pool filter sand it was easy to clean and my tanks are always clean it doesn't murk the water :)
 
Pets at home sand I did was it but most prob not enuff I'm jjust changing all wwater and putting New water in very slow and soft
 
I think you might need to scrub the sand a bit more before you start filling the tank :) that might be the problem, give it a good 5 or 6 washes until the water is clean when the sand gets disturbed, I was worried when I did mine but looking back it was easier than I thought :)
Good luck
