Freshly mixed saltwater turned cloudy

A couple of days ago I mixed up 75 gallons of saltwater with Red Sea Pro salt for water changes this weekend. The first two days the mixed water was clear but then I noticed a slight cloudiness. I thought it may have been the pump so I turned it off. But when I checked today it was even more cloudy. It looks like fine suspended particles that seem not to settle.

I've never seen that before.
Is this just calcium flakes?

Would you still use this water?
