Zac Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Hey all, I have black fungus growing on my driftwood I I’d like to remove it. I know the fungus is harmless but it sort of accumulated in my clown pleco’s favorite spot and he doesn’t seem as fascinated with the wood as he used to be. I tried scrubbing it but it came back. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 If you can take it out of the tank. Soak it in hydrogen peroxide scrub it off with an unused toothbrush or paper towels. Rinse thoroughly and that should remove it and kill it off so it does not come back quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeQ Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 I'd go with the peroxide solution but I'd only spray it, scrub and leave it to totally dry out. Be aware, this will kill everything, both good and bad bacteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenman Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 I've found that Pimafix wipes out most fungus with minimal side-effects. You can use it in tank without having to remove anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
