I had been battling dinos for the last 2 months. After acquiring a UV sterilizer and doing several 3 day blackouts I finally rid myself of the bulk of it and my aquarium looks good however I still have stuff popping up on my substrates. It looks different from the dinos I had because those were long and stringy.
At this point it appears to be spreading on the substrate and I have seen a small number of air bubbles (like maybe 2-3). It also seems to be growing on the glass and I clean it off every 8 hrs or so.
I pulled the sterilizer off a week ago after letting the tank get dirty and running it for about a month.
Am I still battling dinos or is this something different? Tank is about 9 months old. Water parameters are a bit elevated with nitrates around 15-20ppm.
