Question on cloudy tank

[Cmedeiros]

So until I added a calcium buffer directly to my water It was pristine clear. Now it’s cloudy. Been about a week since I added it. Is there any way to get it clear again?

Is the only way to get my old water back slow water changes every few days ?

Calcium and pH buffers aren't recommend for adjustments. More often than not, they mess with other parameters, like alkalinity for example. They can cause calcium to precipitate (milky water) and alkalinity to swing wildly.

Do you have a alkalinity test kit?

I do but am out of one of the agents,
