Cloudy water in QT

[Reef lover24]

Set up my QT yest using nutri seawater and was hoping to try to get some fish in there today to try to treat. However woke up today and the water was cloudy.. I don't know why. Any suggestions on what to do? I threw some food in last night because someone told me to which was supposed to help the process but I don't think it helped.
All information appreciated greatly, thank you.

Your QT has no biological filter and ammonia is going to be your biggest enemy. I even said in my reply to remove all uneaten food. The cloudiness is possibly a bacteria bloom and its now cycling a bit. You have a few choices. You can sacrifice some rock from your tank or if anyone has a seeded sponge you can use. You could also get some polypads. Check your ammonia and nitrite levels and do not put any fish in if any are detected.

The sponge I am using is from the sump in my DT. I checked the levels last night there was nothing, I will check them again in a bit and see what they are at.

0 ammonia, .25ppm nitrite.
