The only thing really holding me back is that I *HATE* filter socks. If there were media towers or floss holders available, I'd probably already have one of these tanks.

Anyone tell me what I’ve got growing here… is this due to lights being on too much??

Looks like diatoms. Perfectly normal.

That’s what I figured based off reading but figured better ask and be sure. Thank you!
