Aquarium Advice Regular
Even with my semi-daily (every other day at the longest) water changes, I'm getting crud accumulating on the surface of the water. My tank is still cycling, so I'm assuming that it is bacterial bloom. There is also some of it in suspension within the tank as the filter forces it downward. I thin it also could be stuff coming off of the drift wood I have in there. My daily water changes don't seem to be getting rid of it as the siphon pulls water from within the tank and is useless for skimming the surface. I tried a net, but it's pretty useless and when I dip with a small cup it just disperses around the cup. Should I worry about getting this stuff out? It is also allowing bubbles that form on the surface to stay, so the top of the water is almost covered in a solid sheet of bubbles.
