Hi all,

Hope to be able to find some answers. Thanks.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1401777198.510677.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1401777224.191740.jpg

Could be some hardy moss or algae that happen to still be living inside the wood.

I had a piece of driftwood with fissidens attached to it before, took it out from the tank, removed all the fissidens, washed and scrubbed it thoroughly, put it under the sun for a week until bone dry, then keep in storeroom. A few months later i took it out and put into a new tank, within a week could see small fissiden fronds start popping out all over the wood surface. Super hardy mosses.

I just let the moss continue growing in my new setup... i guess if you don't want whatever the stuff is growing on your wood piece, the just scrub it off and keep removing it if it pops up. If its algae then you could try spot treating it with H2o2 or Excel to kill it.

Thanks for the answers.
Gonna go it a try to see what pops out. Update again when there is more green on it. Thank you UA. Your knowledge is very impressive.
