Hi,

Floaty bits....easy solution for this one. Get one of those sponges from a fluval (or something like that) and stick in to one of the power heads (or the main circulation pump) -- do this just before you do your cleanup. Any floating bits will be caught by your little invention. After your clean up is done, let it run for a day or so (with the filter). Only let it run for a day (or else its a nice nitrate factory). To remove, take a fish net and net the sponge. When you remove the sponge and some floaty particles may detach from the sponge. The floaty particles will be contained by the net (that you put around the sponge). Remove both the sponge and net and wash. Done...no more floaties.

Hope that helps.

- Victor.
