It takes a few days to totally clear up. You can shorten this time by temporarily installing filter floss or something similar in your sump.

The worst of it should clear after 24 hours, however. Make sure that you're not kicking up sand with a powerhead or the return flow.

Yeah, it can take a couple of days to clear. Just relax and be patient, it'll clear up.
