kimosabe Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 This algae showed up overnight and seems to be able to grow expediently fast. This “algae”growth was not there yesterday and today has grown overnight mostly on all the glass within the tank. I tried researching this but I cannot distinguish what kind of algae this is, if it is algae. Any ideas and advice how to get rid of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe your fish will eat it? Reference pics of slime mold: Edited May 27 by neitherman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimosabe Posted May 27 Author Share Posted May 27 Thank you! I’ll look into this I had a feeling it may not be algae possibly! Hopefully easy fix 🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabokovfan87 Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Here is a photo from online of a freshwater sponge. You might just happen to have one that populated in your tank. Bentley Pascoe has some videos on youtube about them 🙂 . This might be what you're looking at, but difficult to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
