ID Question

[jmsalt1]

Ok, I've got this translucent or semi-transparent what I would best describe as "fuzz" that grows on the rock in my small display. It doesn't really grow and get to be a nuisance like hair algae but it seems to like good flow and Philips LED lighting. The stuff doesn't get long, I'd say maybe 1/4" or less. Anyone else ever get this? Not sure it would photo well because it is somewhat translucent.

I can't help with an ID, but earlier this week I noticed and couple of clear fuzzy spots on my sand and searched the forum for info. Does it look like any of the pictures in these threads?

Looks very much like the stuff in the last thread and matches his description too. Not a big problem but just wondering what it is. This guy never got any replies about what it is either.

Oh, forgot to say thanks for posting those threads! Super helpful.

Eww...looks like cotton fungus infection my old cichlid used to get all the time when she was geriatric.

Looks like the stuff posted by Lakee911 in the last thread. Really not that offensive and doesn't seem to be bothering anything. Likes flow as it grows in my dt but is nowhere in my fuge which is more low flow. Fuge is on a PAR 38 Orphek bulb.

Here's a really funky iPhone shot. Sorry for the crazy black light effect.
