SC Fish Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 a few pictures from the 20 gallon. 1st picture: i cut the grass which is why it looks shorter, the fungus or biofilm (please let me know what it is) seems more obvious now.. im not sure what exactly to do, i havnt done a water change since i treated the water (9 days ago) so i will do a quick one today. im not sure if that would help tho. 2nd picture: i also seen this vine or root covered in biofilm or fungus (the white stuff around it) (not sure , please let me know what it is or atleast thoughts on what it could be) other stems and roots are covered in this, just not so bad and only really popped up in the last couple days, 3rd picture: the brown stuff within the anubius stems im pretty sure is some form of algae, its also grown in some other areas, not sure what it is but its been here for over a week now. if anyone has any ideas on what i can do to solve these issues please let me know, it would help in more ways than you can think of!

DHG is specifically sensitive to salt, so I don't think you should use any (based on my own experience). Hopefully those little adjustments help. It's a very strange issue.

nabokovfan87 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 @SC Fishwhat plant is it? If it's anubias the rhizome is rotting. It can't be buried in the substrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
