I work at a pet store and I've had 3ploeple with this issue, of a pink fuzzyness appearing in their tanks, and I would really like to know WHAT it is and HOW to deal with it. With one peticular customer (the 1st one who told me about the issue) we tried medicating for fungus and that didn't help. He then tried bactirial and parasitic medication and nothing helped. He also drained his tank and bleached everything and it still came back. He finaly gave up on the fish thing and moved to reptiles.
But a customer who I've helped since around November told me the same thing. In their 10gal tank they have 2 very small goldfish. They have sand as a substrate a good filter, no heater (about 68-74 temp) and only feed for 5-10min once a day, and there isn't any food left over. Their eco system is complete and they only had about 1.0ppm ammonia. Which they are fixing with a 10%water change today and another 10% change tomorrow.
What is the pink fuzz?
How do I get rid of it?
