My water is turning white. The fish have been in there for 3 days and I am doing the fish cycle. Any ideas on what is going on?

It's just the bacteria bloom, and is perfectly normal. Do not use those clearup chemicals as they do not work on the bacteria IME and will end up just clogging up your filter media faster.

Just let it be and like JWright said it will go away on it's own.
