    Thank you for this video! I also found that the Nerite snails very good against this white mold. They eat it with pleasure and because of big snail size, it's easy to catch them of after the job is done and aquarium stabilised.

    Wow thanks for some great information, I’ve just set up a new tank with a few pieces of root wood and after 5 days I noticed white mould on the wood, panic time I thought but now I’ve watched your video it’s clear what I need to do, a very well earned sub from me, once again thank you

      I read that you struggled with white mould on driftwood some 6 months ago. Has the white mould disappeared by itself eventually, as indicated in the video? What else did you do to clear it up? Thanks for your response.

    I felt so relieved after watching this video but now getting nervous again. I tried a dry start in my new tank, I think I didn't give it enough ventilation and a white mold developed. I saw where flooding the tank would solve it so I flooded it. 2 days later, the mold appeared again all over the driftwood bonsai trees. More alarming is that now I am seeing it on some of the plants on the substrate. It has been over a week since I flooded the tank.Any advice would be very helpful

Another thing, I am noticing is detritus worms (discovered about this after researching) which stressed me out. Water is still cycling and will be 2 weeks soon for new planted aquarium setup. Discovering new things everyday but after research most is heading for a positive side but slow.

      Official WASABI Moderator: Hi Alexis, what you are experiencing is poor water flow in the aquarium and poor filtration. The biological layer of beneficial bacteria hasn't established and what you are seeing is the 'bad' bacteria taking over. Kindly do a 80% water change and use melamine sponge to clean out the aquarium to get rid of the substances. Introduce an air stone to remove the bubble substances on the surface of the aquarium water. Hope this helps! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

    I have full of biofilm on my java moss attached wood. Java moss covered with full of biofilm. In my condition is it harmfull to java moss? I mean, can my java moss "breath"?

      Biofilm will suffocate your Java Moss, please use aeration or surface skimmer for biofilm - Official WASABI Aquarium Channel Moderator

    setting up a new black water aquarium, will the tannins clear the white mould off my bog wood please?

      @fredgilbert2032 Рік тому

      Nope my mopani wood (great for tannins) is my worst offender. I don't think tannins have any effect. Just wait it out. The hardest thing about this hobby is patience. Nothing good is fast in the aquatic world it seems.

    What if the driftwood was on the land in a viquarium or terrarium? Does the mold appear on driftwood that has never been in the water, or is that a whole other issue!?

    • @NORIaquaCh
      @NORIaquaCh 3 роки тому +1

      Official WASABI Moderator: Hi Dante. The white mold will appear once it's submerged in water. If it's been under water, then transferring it into an aquarium should see minimal mold appearing. Also, please check NORI aqua channel for my exclusive interview.

    Hello. I have a concern about some fluffy, white substance floating along the cord of my water heater. The heater is situated at the bottom of my tank, where I keep two African dwarf frogs. I'm worried whether it is something that can hurt them, and I don't know what to do. I have seen it suggested to use aquarium salt treatment according to the amount of water in my tank but I'm not sure. Please let me know what you think!
    Edit: all responses welcome.

    You can put some otocinclus affinis (amazonic catfish), it is a pretty cute small fish and they will eat it all.

      That isn't actually mold, but a collection of biofilm as it dries as your water evaporates, please wipe it off on regular maintenance - Official WASABI Aquarium Channel Moderator

    question : this white fuzz also appear on sand and rocks like dragon stone right ? i just happen to have a very similar thing in my aquarium and i tried to clean it but it was very sticky ... so i removed some ... cleaned my filter sponges and added more bacteria to make it stabilize faster ... i hope this is done correctly
