Jim T Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Is this algae, and how should I get rid of it, or is it ok to leave it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 That is a biofilm new driftwood commonly grows. It will disappear on its own eventually, or you can take it out and rinse it off, or you can just suck it up during water changes. It is harmless. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jungle Fan Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Biofilm also called bacterial lawn, Otocinclus, shrimp and, Nerite snails love that stuff that usually only appears on freshly placed driftwood, once the wood has been submerged for a few weeks, or a month, it disappears by itself even without help. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
