It looks exactly like dust. I haven't been doing anything in the house out of the ordinary so I am not sure what it is. The tank has been up and running for about 2 months and this just appeared about a week ago.

Could still be micro bubbles.... just means not from skimmer, could be from return pump being over rated from your tank. do you have baffles in your sump? if your return pump is over rated for your tank, the amount of water draining into your sump could be producing the bubbles and without baffles to clear the water before the return pump it will just spit em back into your tank. had similar issues with my tank.
