White dust looking particles in fish tank

[callumw98]

I have these white fluffy looking particles in my fish tank that’s making the water look dirty. What are they and how can I get rid of them?

Mechanical filter with surface cleaner, or socks in the sump

Welcome to the forum!
What are you running for filtration? How new is the tank? How frequently do you do water changes?

More flow and better mechanical filtration

Agree with above, shouldn't be hard to get rid off. Cleaning the glass and mechanically filters should get it.

filter floss/fine mechanical filtration. . . if it's floating on the top, also consider surface agitation as well.
