Default clowdy water

If there is a whitish colour to the water and it is not being caused by the powerheads stirring up the sandbed it could be a bacterial bloom.

Especially if your tests are showing 10ppm Nitrite.

How much live rock do you have in the tank?

How big is your tank?

3 fish is not a big load on a tank. Unless it is a small tank with big fish.

Make sure you are not over feeding also.

Sorry about all the questions. Just curious about the nitrite reading.
