Guests coming over few days quick temp fix water clarity

[mr.bigglesworth]

I have a small green algae bloom on my 100gal aquarium. The water is a bit hazy/dusty is their anything I can put in like a chemical that wont kill plants or fish? I just need it to look sparkling for this Saturday's party. A few hours at most.
I'm gonna do a water change and clean glass but cleaning glass just makes it cloudier cuz the algae gets into water column.
Any sug's?

I'd hate to use unnecessary chemicals. So my suggestion is, clean glass before the water change, then do a 80% water change ASAP. That way the water can settle by party time.

^ Yep, you could also throw some water polishing pads in your filter after the water change to help pull more or the same stuff out, they will clog fast but the point is to get it out of the water fast.

Scrub the walls, clean the plants/decor, and do a large water change.
