Do you have hard water?

We do here in NY yeah. I thought hardwater buildup is tough and whatnot. This is like slime free floating crap! lol.

x2 This is what Im thinking too......It's either a film from hard water or from biofilm.

All I know is its ugly and annoying. Ill clean it out and when I get back from work theres a fresh pile twirling in the dead spot. On top of it it makes my water appear dirty even though its crystal clear.

The white paper like flakes are calcium buildup which is common for hard water

Its protein deposits. Get a protein skimmer to get rid of it or just feed less and increase water changes

Well I cant really feed my bass any less than I do already ha. Which is once a day. On my lunch break I placed a net in front of the return line which is the source of it. With any luck it kinda breaks apart due to the pressure into smaller pieces that aren't so visible.

Not feed less then that just a little smaller amounts.

Well on the plus I just put a net in front of my output hose and obviously it cleared up a lot. I can't even see anything collected in the net either so maybe it's breaking down fast enough and small enough to not clog or be noticeable. Also I have a quick disconnect I made by the output so during my water change schedual I can just flush whatever may be trapped if any. Problem solved I think lol.
