Looks like what’s all on the back of my rock in the tank, which was said to be sponge and safe.

I’m no expert though so….
Thought it might be the way it's growing. It's in my overflow box so as long as it stays out of the drain I'm good with it.

I dunno... I have a red sponge that may have killed an Acro. It was growing up the base, then the Acro died, then the sponge covered it. Could just be a coincidence since it seems most of my Acros are doing poorly...

Haven't seen anything like it in the tank though. Just the overflow.

Unclog the nozzle probably?
It extruded fine when it wasn't printing. That was the first thing I looked at.
What material? What are the nozzle temps? In a way it looks like the heat is too low, no layer adhesion, dragging the filament apart.
Petg, 240 no cooling. I can crank it, but should be ok there.

It was after a few tpu prints, that may have caused some sticking. Not sure.

Got the same thing going now with pla, 200 maybe cooling, didn't look. And it's fine.
