I don't know what this is

[christineca]

Help! I have this weird white flowing stuff that is stuck to the glass of my fishtank (fresh). What is it and how do I get rid of it. I put in the tablets that get rid of disease and a week later did a 75% water change and it seems to have gone away but now it is back and worse this time. HELP!

It would be more helpful to us if you told us ALOT more about your tank:
Size
How long it's been running
Water parameters
Stock
What and how much you are feeding
Named of the Meds that you put in it...

We can't help you unless you give us more info.
Thanx,

I agree, more info. "White stuff" brings different images to different people. For example, is it a white foam, is it solid looking, soapy? And the more info you give the better chances that you will be answered accurately. To me, it sounds like water build up by the way you described it being white and stuck to the side of the glass. I'm definately out of my league when it comes to diseases.

Hope you find the answers you're looking for.

Without seeing it, I would have to say its soap. Reason is because you said its white, and when you did your water change it came back worse.
