It is white, looks like a thread of yarn, is very slimy and appears more "clear colored" when out of the tank.

I know the blues are on but hopefully the pictures give enough clues.

:rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: :cool: Your description makes me think of politicians but the picture doesn’t help me know what you have, and I just finished drinking breakfast?

Call this a bump

Hmm, there's a LOT of this stuff in all the nooks and crannies. Then it gets into my filter and gunks it all up :grinning-face-with-smiling-eyes:

Ah well, worth it!
