dragon79 Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 What the heck is this growing in my chamber 3 ? It's where my heater and upgraded pump are on my girlfriends 12 gallon JBJ. I took like 10 pics, but only two came out sort of. See if these shots help, if not I'll take more. From what I can tell, they are clearish color, tube that sticks to everything, to the end of it looks like a fan of some sort. Whatever it is, it's multiplied like crazy all over in there. None of this at all is found in the display tank. Any ideas people? Link to comment

dragon79 Posted March 20, 2005 Author Share Posted March 20, 2005 thanks everybody and thanks for the link jennie, so I guess it's a sign of a healthy maturing tank. Yay, haha. My girlfriend is thrilled to know it's a good thing and not a bad thing. Link to comment
