I've looked online and tried to find some information about this white fuzz, but can't find anything.

I've noticed it growing and covering more of the rocks. I can't say it's only growing in dark areas or bright areas of the rock. But I can say with certainty that it's growing in areas with the highest flow.


You can see it on the left-side profile of the rock.

Hi, I'm not sure what it is or if it's good or bad, but I had the same thing in my thank a few months back.
I noticed it slowly started to take over one of the rocks but it didn't really look like it was bothering anything.
It eventually disappear.
All my parameters where in check when I noticed.

Thanks @Dtfnemo. Same here. Doesn't seem to be bothering anything.

It's just odd I can't find anything about it. I've seen forums with people asking questions but no definitive answers.

Thank you!!

Super helpful.

No problem, info was not mine, but helped me with a bad infestation. Been cleared up now for a while; can't pin it down to one specific treatment, but overall cleared everything up & I had it bad. It started slow & I thought it would just go away on its own, but instead got worse. Good Luck.
