water clarity is usually affected by two things, 1 - nutrients (dissolved organics) in the water column and free floating particles. Mechanical filtration with a filter sock will remove the free floating particles and protein skimming and carbon will reduce the yellowing caused by dissolved organics. Adding additives will not have as much of an impact as the methods mentioned above
