Aquarium tank water cloudy

hi all
my 2ft 1.5ft 1.5ft tank water appear to be cloudy after partial water change
i understand is due to bacteria bloom in new tank

any idea or ways to remove the cloudiness or i just have to wait in patience?
currently in tank for filtration is using dopline ohf , inside the tank is coral chips and a bit lava rock rest is all pebble stones

my ohf theres only the filter media wool thats all

any advise

regards

maybe dust from the pebbles, coral chips and lava rocks?
have you rinsed them before using?

You can try adding a bag of activated carbon in your OHF overflow compartment to adsorb the particles. Remember to remove the bag after 2 weeks.
