If the temp is normal you may be able to return the fish...sort of the same conditions as a major storm in a natural reef. I've had fish in some pretty cloudy water with no major problems. To help the water clear try to use some mechanical filters and filter floss if you can...the mechanical filtration will help clear the water quicker.

The only time I used south down was when I set up my 100 and it took a few days to clear. But I didn't have any concern about livestock...it was all in my old display...:thinking:
