so whats the problem? your tank is cloudy? that wont hurt the fish. and you shouldnt change so much at one time. taking out gravel and wc will hurt the live bacteria.
Your ganna kill off all your live bacteria and thats ganna be a REAL problem, the cloudy wate should go away but it wont hurt the fish
sorry to post so much, but one more thing. if your tank gets that dirty from siphoning the gravel, you might want to up your cleaning schedule
I have never heard of debris being caught in the gills from a fish living in cloudy water, the fish should be fine, their gills can open pretty wide to let stuff pass through
