Im currently cycling however I have brown diatom with lilttle bubbles all over the place. Sand has brown as well.

What is the best way to clean this brown during cycle? I have tried the plastic turkey baster but it is not strong enough.

Also, I need a quiet skimmer because this tank is in my bedroom.

Your thoughts?

Thanks
KT
