I noticed my tank is cloudy, espcially when looking at the sides. Its a 200G system. I have 2 corals 1 candy cane, and 1 duncan doing great.

I have my roller matt off because i was cycling. Not sure when to turn it on? My cycle finished. I cycled with live rock, and fritz turbo start 900. My tank is a month old. What should i do? I have like very little nitrite and 0 ammonia.

Do i wait it out? I did a water change few days ago..

Don't worry about nitrites, test for nitrates to see if you indeed are done with the cycle. You probably are, but nitrites are a bit of a useless test. Little early for corals. You will most likely have some algae issues that will kill your corals, besides a tank needs to be a bit more stable. I wouldn't buy any more corals. Seems like a bacterial bloom. A water change will fix some of it. My bacterial bloom went away on its own in 24 hrs or so after a water change.
