hey guys!... i have this stuff pilling up towards the back of my about 1 month nano 12g tank. Can u tell me what it is and how i can get rid of it. It is also starting to pile up on my rocks.
It is decaying ditrius . Siphion it off and place a power head aimed at that area to keep it suspended for your filter to grab. Also a turkey baster to blow it off while removing water for an H20 change will help as well.
It's detritus. Not a good thing to have. It'll contribute to PO4, NO3 levels, and generally dirty water. As Sadilynn said more flow along with manual removal is necessary.
