If you find them distracting, you can take a couple of different approaches to clearing up your water some.

Use a filter sock or some other form of filter pad or such in your sump if you would like to pull them out of water column. You could even use a an external canister filter with a pleated cartridge such as a Magnum.

Some sump designs allow most of the particles to "fall" out of solution through a series of baffles, some with filter sponges in them as well.

Hope this helps.
