Run a bit of GAC. That should clear it up assuming it’s not a bloom of some sort.
 
Use a turkey baster or a power heae and blow off your rock, could be dead stuff slowly coming off the rock if it small particals. Could also be sand getting particals, bubbles or a bactieral bloom. Water changes will help and imo are the best moerhid to clear water.
