Wondering if someone can shed some light. I have noticed that lately one head of my acans have developed a very opaque white film or sheet over it's mouth. If I pop it, underneath is brown and a very rotten/decaying smell is evident. That particular head tends to die shortly after because the mouth is completely decayed to skeleton. Is this brown jelly? How do I combat this? Thanks so much.

Sounds like brown jelley to me. The smell is always a indicator for me. Dip in iodine and qt if possible. That will go after a lot of lps and is very fatal
