Re: Transparent Jelly Like stuff in aquarium Please Help!!!!!



I've seen something similar in my tanks.  A jelly-like transparent  mucous
developed on some mopani root after being in the aquarium for about a week.
Shortly afterwards, I discovered that my SAE (or possibly pleco) really
liked the taste of it.  Within another week or so it was gone again.  Never
did figure out WHAT it was, but there didn't seem to be any ill effects from
it.
