Mould in aqaurium
I looked at my tank this morning and found that some bogwood has some mould looking type thing on it. The wood has been in the tank since november and not had any problems with it.
I recently added a bit more wood to the tank, but its was bonedry when it went in and had also been washed.
I took the wood out and cleaned it up but its back already.
Ive check all my parameters and it all seems to be ok. I clean the tank often while doing at least a 20 - 30 ltr water change. ive been feeding them once every 2 days.
anyone help?

Try putting some small snails in it, not the massive mystery snails but small ones. I put some sticks in my tank and the same thing happened, but then I added about 5-10 snails in and in a week, the mold was gone. Depending on the size of your tank, the snails might not get there as fast, my tank is a 29 gal. so they pretty much found the sticks right away. Hope this helps.

I had the problem too. I took the wood out and boiled it. The mold never came back
