tank is coming along nicely,
on your filtration, do you have a refugium setup in there, as in cheato and other types of macro alage?? Your tank is probably not as cloudy as one is thinking, a lot can impare that. Few particles in the tank, which are no big deal will cause a slight haze, and algae on the glass, even though we dont see it, will impare the visuals of the tank. My suggestion is to do some massive water changes, just to ensure that your water is free of any chemical imbalance and focus on your filtration. Fine woven floss will help get rid of the floatin particles in there. Its also going to help if you keep the overflow box as clean as possible, this will increase flow rate and also ensure your getting most, if not all of the particles.
