Most likely a bacterial bloom. It should go away on its own. UV filter can help speed it up.

I don’t have a uv unfortunately. Any other suggestions?

Bacterial bloom. Get a cheap hang on filter from walmart (called power filter) and run it. It has a mesh filter for dirt entrapment and carbon for polishing and will act as a polishing filter clearing it in no time.
Using a product such as Kent Pro-clear will also help. Liquid Vibrant will do the same

I would do a water change, that happened to me, Major stress, did 30% water change all good next day. But as some have said it could go away in a few days by itself.
