I just added aragonite to my aquarium and I wanted to know if my water will clear up without a filter. All i have is it going through a sump, and a return pump. What should i do without buying a filter. I'm eventually getting a protein skimmer, but not just yet... Oh yes, i forgot to rinse the sand because I am an idiot.

No problem! It will clear but will just take more time. You can insert the foam block in your sump to help knock down the extra sediment. Good luck!

Welcome, ksufiji !!! aka. idiot (ha ha)
can you not put some carbon in your sump some how? that would help, normally I would say the sand storm will settle in time,but this time I will say it will settle in a long time, but carbon would help

It will settle down within a few days. I agree with the above, a sponge filter in the sump will help, an extra filter would help also but is not necessary.
