help, cloudy water

[marty20]

hi everyone. I went home Friday night and when I came back this morning my water is cloudy and milky almost. All my fish and inverts seem okay but some of my corals don't seem 100%... I have absolutely no idea what could have caused this and im looking for any clues as to what could've happened and how to fix it. I have already started to do partial water changes but its not settling on the bottom and its tough to tell if its is getting better after the 3 gallons I have already taken out. Its a 20 gallon tank. Thanks in advance!

Just an update. My water parameters have all checked out after testing. The only thing was my calcium was a little low which I expected as I hadn't dosed yet this week. So now I really don't know what has happened to the water

have you dosed anything? what are alk levels? could be a bacterial bloom?

I don't believe its bacterial because its a white cloud. Almost milky. And all the parameters are set properly. I have dosed the calcium to bring it to about 430. I added a special filter media that is hopefully going to clear it up. Its called clear fx pro

I apologize I read algae bloom. Sorry! Yes it could be bacterial.
