micro dirt

[fish n chips]

guys

i have micro bits of stuff, ie fish dirt in my water, when im sitting away from the tank it looks clear ,but when i go close i can see the water is not like i would like it.
its only a 55 gal and i have 2 filters 1 that was built in witch has a fine filter pad,and the 2nd is a fluval305,i have added xtra fine pads to that.its pissing me off to see micro dirt with all that filteration,

any tips on how i can get it pure clean???

its on ebay for 50 euro a liter will that do and do i just put it in a tray in my canister?

A liter will treat 1,000 gallons so it's more than you'll need. I think they sell 100ml packages that include a bag. You can't put this into an open tray, you'll need a fine mesh bag.

this comes with a bag, you can read some of the reviews for yourself
