New to fish NEED help :[

[Starter]

Ok, so today I had a major FML.. My new tank I recently set up with Cory Fish, Swordtails somehow.. Ended up on the ground.. I came home and tripped..

Now the only survivor I have is a sword tail and a half moon betta that I had in a cup waiting to put into the tank.

I have the sword tail inside the cup with the betta and their doing fine, how long do you think the sword tail can do without a air bubble filter bubbling?

Because I think it may take 2 days for me to get another fish tank ><

Also, is it safe to put fish into a cloudy fish tank? Due to first time inserting sand?

I have a small 5 GAL that I just put sand into, and its been cloudy. ><

 

[TTTT]

The 5 gallon should be fine, for the time being

Cloudyness may indicate that it isn't done cycling.
