Here is a video of this grey hue dust on my sand-bed. What is this? How do I get rid of it?

I can’t see the vid but I have a gray looking powder that’s sediment from my rocks
 
Likely mulm or Detrious. Simply siphon up. This dust suggests you have a dead spot (area with little to No flow)

I couldn’t siphon it all up, I got about 75% of if but there is definitely still some left on the sand bed. Should I add another powerhead? Is there any other way to remove detritus?
 
Cerith snails are known to eat and deal with detrious. Worth a try
