Brown dirt

When I move my lr around or clean, there is a lot of this brown dirt laying on the bottom of my tank. If u kick it up it makes a huge mess and make the water cloudy, plus it just look bad when it settles. What is it? Should I siphon it out during weekly water changes? Is there a way to keep it from pilling up so much?
thanks

My camera isn;t working. But its not on anything but the bottom of the tank on the sand. Its kinda flaky and its not in sheets covering the lr ot glass like green or reg algae. It just looks like dirt and its mostly under the lr when i move it. Ive heard that lr poops just like fish, is that what it is?
