what kind of carbon are you useing. some are for fresh water only? how much are you running and is it getting good flow through it?? try adding a little fiber floss and see if you can clear it up.

Don't add chemicals, do a water change and wait it out. If you think it is algea then cut back on nutrients and light. But give you filtration time to work. If you start to add chemicals to your tank you will regret it later on done the road. Be patient and by the looks of that you have less patience than me and that is saying something.
