heavy fish load, onyx sand, heavy plantings

This is normal of new growth.

In my experience, the transparent part is new growth. After a few
days, the transparent areas become solid green. If you want to test it
out, take a picture with a digital camera, and do the same thing each
following day and compare pictures. I hope that that's what it is for
you!
