I know its tough to be definitive without a microscope photo, but does anyone have an idea what I'm looking at? I just (mostly) got rid of a MASSIVE GHA outbreak and then this yellow stuff came in. Any help is appreciated!

Looks like dinos. I had the same thing happen to me when trying to get rid of GHA. Bottomed out my nutrients, and Dinos came with it.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

It depends on how badly I want the fish

Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

I haven’t really considered this before

Something else (see my comments in the thread)
