Cloudy water for a day or so after water change?

It doesnt happen every time, but every once in a while when I do a water change (2.5 gal uncycled) the water will get somewhat cloudy white the next day and then clear up a day or sometimes two later. I treat the water the same every time. What causes this, is it harmful, and is there anything I can do to stop it? Thank you!

I have had the same problem, it's a bacterial bloom. It's not harmful, so don't worry about it. My 2 gal is uncycled too and I'm not concerned. It will just keep happening, I don't exactly know how to stop it. Maybe someone else on the forum will know, im curious about this too!
