Strange Happenings After Adding Things

[OneOnion]

Hi, I recently added more gravel and plants to my 10 gallon tank, and now the tank is not very visible, very small particles floating in the tank and now there are small lines swaying in the current, one side latched to the side of the tank. The things do not look like they are living. I thought it was, like, debris from the big water change(I scraped all the gravel around) but it didn't settle down after a while. What is happening?

Did you wash the new gravel first?

Yes, I rinsed it about 4 times. The dust settled a bit, but the things on the walls are still there.

Possibly a lot of water bubbles? It took about a 3/4 days for my rio 125 to settle down after filling it up. However I don't feel like it is air bubbles.

Interesting, did you thoroughly wash the plants?

hydra and planaria spring to mind.
