Hello all.
I set up a 2nd tank, a 6 gallon petco brand that I bought from a friend for dirt cheap. I had it for a few weeks without setting it up. Cleaned it up with water and vinegar real well and let everything dry. I filled it up with water about 2 weeks ago, and added some mysis shrimp to kick off the cycle. The ammonia is off the API chart, 8+ppm. No nitrites yet.
Today I found these white masses growing on some of the rocks. They look like thread tape when they're dislodged. Is there some type of sponge that thrives in ammonia rich environments? Is it an alien?
