I have some red thing with white fuzz around it floating in the tank. It looks like the BGKF food pellets with fuzz. Is it just the food with the I'm not sure white stuff or is it the dreadful BBA?
 
Pic is really hard to see, but if you have leftover food left floating it could start to grow mold or fungus or something. I'd remove it and try to not allow leftover food to hang out. Only feed as much as the fish will eat in a minute or two.

Looks like leftover food with fungus. It smells bad. I already removed all of it. I'll try not to over feed. Thanks.

Agreed. Rotting food.

That's what I thought. That was my first encounter with the floating fuzz. So I got a little worried. Thanks.
