My father in law has a 29g freshwater tank with some unknown growth on his fake plants. There was more before, but he cleaned off the plants and most went away. He is going to clean the plants again to get rid of the rest of it, but wanted to know what it is and prevent it from returning. It also appears his tank is cycling again as shown below. He was using ammo lock to help with ammonia, but hasn't seen any change from it. Advised him to stop the ammo lock and do a 50-75% WC. He tested his water source and doesn't have any ammonia in the source water. The water he uses does go through a water softener.
