Sorry I have to disagree. I have a fish room full of tanks with no surface
agitation. No filters no air no yeast. Actually just glass tanks under shop lights.
It's a matter of getting the right balance of what's in there. Though I agree that
surface agitation will clear it up. I just wanted to mention it is perfectly
possible to not have surface scum and still not have agitation.
