Im in the process of adding a 90 to my existing 100g display with 33l sump. Ive finished filling heating and setting the specific gravity of the "new" tank and have attained a relatively close ph, alk, cal and mag readings.

The new tank is still slightly cloudy from the addition of 90 gallons worth of IO and 2 part adjustments. All the plumbing is in place and all i'll have to do is turn 2 ball valves and plug in the return, but should I wait for the new sw to age?

If the SG and temperature are matched closely, I'd probably just let the water aerate overnight.
