    Hi All,

    Just set up my tank. Noticed within 2 days, there is this white colour moldy thing growing all over my drift wood and substrate. Could anyone enlighten me what that is and what causes it ?? More important, how do i get rid of it ???

    Thanks

    U don't have to worry about the fungus on the wood. Once your beneficial bacteria sets in, the fungus will disappear within 2wks.
