maybe this?

Is the tank cloudy or just the photo? I think the organic soil is causing more harm than good from the look of things and lack of circulation.

The plants look to be low on P and K from the algae surrounding the leaf edges and lost of the tip of leaves.
 
like this?

feel like a bacterial bloom on the glass. The white slimy stuff on the bottom of a barebottom grow out tank. had the white slimy coat back when I was breeding corydoras. seem kind of fast for the tank to get coated by bacteria.

Is the white film slimey to the touch?

Someone else will have to chime in that has dealt with the white coating on the side of glass. Usually unsightly thing on the side of glass are green spot, green dust, diatom.
