Here's the video. Sorry ahead of time for not shooting in widescreen. Also, please appreciate Seinfeld playing in the background.

The Powerheads were off in the video and had been for over an hour.

I watched for a cpl seconds and I'm sure them b pods! congrats! Easy to tell by movement.

Don't look like PODs to me, looks like floating debre that the fish are kicking up.

It just never subsides. First thing in the morning while they're all sleeping, it's still floating around. Powerheads have been off for nearly 3 hours and its still there. It's frustrating.

Mechanical Filter time. just run it for a week to get rid of the debre then remove it.

Thanx for the input.

I actually think its from my bio pellet reactor. I read somewhere that when using the NP Active Pearls, the line coming out of the reactor should go to the skimmer. I finally noticed that there were some of the particles going through the sump to the return, so I got a tee and connected my reactor to the skimmer intake. I also got some filter media(mechanical, chemical, and biological) to run in a hob filter for a week or so to try to clean out the floating stuff. I'm also going to do a large WC to try to help. If this doesn't work, I'll be looking into something else.

I just put an old HOB on there with a sponge, bag of carbon, and a bag of the little ceramic beads. I'll run it for a week or so. If anyone thinks I should do this differently please let me know your suggestion.
