Welcome to TFP! I think it's just going to take time. Not sure how you test your water, but if you would like to post a full set of water test results, we can look them over for you.

My guess is its the cornstarch that is clouding the water but cornstarch doesn't stay in suspension, it tends to clump unless heated or mixed vigorously. What type of filter do you have? A cartridge filter will probably clear it out quicker, sand might take a bit.
