I have no clue what this crap is nor how to fight it! I have been fighting this for a long time in my Dwarf Puffer tank(s). I say tanks cause no matter what size tank I have my puffer in it shows up. It doesn't seem to matter how long I have my lights on for or what type of lights, doesn't seem to matter how much I vacuum the substrate, or what type of plants I have I get this stuff. Does anyone anyone at all have a clue to what it is??? How do you fight this?? Usually when it gets to the point it is now I end up having to tear down the whole tank and start over. This is the only tank I have that has this problem. The rest have never had this issue. They get some algae but just a little nothing major or out or the ordinary. I can control those but not my Puffer tanks junk!!! Help please
Right now the lights are on for 8hrs,
The bulb is a Ultrasun Sun super daylight bulb that's 1-2 months old.
I recently went to once a week on dosing Flourish comprehensive.
I also have some root tabs under some of the plants in this tank.
Temp is now 76°.
Here is a video to show some of it.
On top of the stringy crap I get a protien film on the surface and brown slimy stuff on top of the leaves of my Water sprite.
