Hello I have a 46 gallon freshwater tank with artificial plants. It is a heated tank with a HOB filter (Marineland Penguin 350). Current occupants are one bristlenose pleco and 9 zebra danios. We used to have some dwarf gouramis as well but they were sickly and never lasted very long. I am...

Hello, we have a new 46 gallon curved front tank that was purchased and set up 1.5 weeks ago. About 5 days after filling and setting up the tank (no fish) a white fuzzy filamentous growth was noted on some of the artificial plants and decorations (not on the new decorations/plants). The plants...
