So I have a 20 gallon tank has been running since the end of June had fish in the tank for almost the entire time except a week or so to get more fish into qt. I do biweekly water changes have a hang on the back filter, sponge filter, and a pump to move the water feed pellets once a day a little and feed at night meaty foods. Anything will help here’s a picture

It's most likely algae.
