Hi
I have a question about fishless cycling using fish food. I have added some fish food to my fishless planted tank (plants and driftwood) (about 70liters, sponge filter, gravel and heater). A day later I found some fungi-like white growth around each food flake that sunk to the bottom and on my filter. I can see them very clearly cause my gravel is black. The growth looks radiated and it is clearly around the individual food flakes. My question is:does anybody know what this is? is it ok? or do I have some kind of fungi infection I should be removing? I would really like to do this right so would appriciate advice from you guys. Thanks
