I noticed tonight that I've got something growing on my driftwood. I looks like it's growing fur. Should I take it out and wash the fur off?
Jchillin said:Brown hairy like growth? I would say it's algae. I'm not a pro on this (cleaning/removing).
SeriousDude5 said:I would say give it a little while and if it turns into a nusence or spreads throughout the tank pick it off but I like my wood covered in moss.
BrianNY said:More than likely black beard algae. I battle it constantly. It grows on drfitwood, heaters, tubing, and the edges of plant leaves. It's very stubborn and hard to get rid of. Do you have any plants in your tank? What are your nitrates?
