Foggy water

I recently set up my 58 gallon tank and put r/o water in it to test the plumbing. Everything went fine so I mixed the saltwater and added heaters to bring the water up to about 78 degrees F and turned on the skimmer. Its been three days and now the water is foggy (it was clear at first). It has been circulating the whole time with the return and two maxi jets in the display. The skimmer was foaming nicely and now isn't producing any foam at all. Live rock and sand is scheduled to come in this evening. Anyone have any thoughts on why the water is foggy? Is it anything to worry about?

Thanks.
 
i would not worry about it at all, when you add the sand you probabuly wont be able to see a thing, it will look like a snow storm in the tank, that should settle in about 3 days
