Hi all,

My 250 gal. tank is about 7 months old. BRS Dry Rock. This stuff is difficult to blow off with a turkey baster. I have a 50 gal in wall tank that feeds off the same sump which has none of this growth, nor does the sump. Algae? Sponge? It kind of has a cotton candy look and feel, but doesn't taste as good.
