You can regenerate it unless you are using a amine based water conditioner such as API Stress Coat, but it lasts months anyways.

what are your water parameters (aka nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, ect. levels)
whens the last time you did a good gravel vacuuming?
it "looks" like you have the classic underfiltered fog.. this is not from not having enough filters.. but that the BB simply just is not established to handle the bioload...
your tank also looks a bit green.. which could be the start of an algae bloom.. is that a window im seeing behind/next to the tank? if so do you open the shades? how many hours a day do you have the tank/room lights on/shades open
and you already know this but your tank is way overstocked
