| How long ago did you add in you're salt? Did you do so gradually? Has the tank cycled? I know sometimes if I add in a larger concentration of salt during a water change it sometimes clouds the water for a little bit, but it quickly goes clear again.

| It's normal then. It will clear up as the tank continues its cycle. Don't bother adding anything to make the water clear, you might mess up your cycle, best just to leave it.
