Hi, I didn’t read the directions. Help?

I don’t know how to explain how this stupidity happened… I’ll try though. I bought plants! I had cycled water already, so I decided to take out my substrate and change it to flourite after hearing amazing reviews. Took out the fish, the decor, the gravel, aaaaaand I’m pretty sure you can guess what happened next (Spoiler, it’s not poop). How long does this take to settle? What do I do? I have planted the plants out of sheer stupidity at this point… should I take them out? I’m honestly just out of words for this blunder. No pets were harmed. There are two snails in a bucket of water, and Joey here remains unimpressed but unscathed.
