cloudy tank ammonia test problem

[sawyer010]

Hello, everyone, i just set up 91L reef tank, and i use Dr tim's one and only product to make cycling. my tank is very cloudy after adding live sand and saltwater, and it turns slightly clear after two days without running equipment. so i drop half bottle of Dr tim's one and only Nitrifying bacteria and ammonia as well. i made test by API next day, and PH is about 8.2, Nitrite is 0, nitrate is 5Pm, however, there is no colour to match for ammonia, it cant be read. so i feel confused what is going on that? is that due to cloudy water? and what should do next ? thanks

So you added the bacteria, how much and how often are you adding the ammonia?
