Something is growing on DW
I have been cycling my tank for 5 days. There is no fish inside. And i noticed that there is this thing (algae i pressume) growing mostly on my DW.Any of bro encounter this before? What is exactly this thing? And how to prevent this from growing/spreading?

ive ever face this problem before. i suspect is the wood not process fully before put in the tank. this is like organic decaying symptom. may be some scoutting fish can help to eat up these sludge. small clayfish also will do good job which ive done with.

>Originally Posted by Ron Looks similar to wat I had whilst processing a fresh wood...but mine was much more What did u do with it?
Thinking if adding UV filter will help.
>Take the wood out to scrub if not too much hassle for you, otherwise maybe throw some ghost shrimps inside. I suppose youre gonna start pleco keeping?
>Originally Posted by Cedric Take the wood out to scrub if not too much hassle for you, otherwise maybe throw some ghost shrimps inside. I suppose youre gonna start pleco keeping? Yes bro.. Will be keeping pleco/hypan.
They will clean all these? I assume this growing "thing" is harmless ya?
>The white thingy on your driftwood is completely harmless and quite common for new wood. Ive experienced it myself a few times and some fish may eat it too. Itll go away and it wont do anything harmful to your fish.
>Harmless. Nothing to worry about. After some time, it disappears. Get a L001 to clean it up.
>Pleco will do the work by clearing it right ?
>Thanks to all bros here for the input
Its time to put some fishes in there.
