Hi all, I've been having some sort of powdery things floating around the tank lately and they land on everything, wood, plants, hiding spots, absolutely everything. They are not on the surface but inside the tank.
The weird part is it makes these long and narrow curved shapes and the organization of it leaves me puzzled. I don't think detritus usually looks like this. I did some unsuccessful searches so I thought I'd ask here.
This is the first time I've encountered this problem. We recently started feeding the axolotls pellets, if that helps. We feed the axies about 4-5 Rangen pellets every 3 days. Also, we scoop up the axie poop whenever we see it. I first thought it was from disintegrating pellets but we drop them at the axolotls' heads and they eat it all up, no sign of any waste.
Background on the tank, been set up for >6 months. External canister filter. Last water tests (2 days ago) ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 20-40, pH 7.6.
Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks! ~Tran
