Fish Aficionado
So...
both of my betta tanks (2.5 gallon rectangle tanks) develop a sort of film or "slime" across the top of the tank within a day or two of water changes. It doesn't seem to cause any problems except that the fish have somewhat of a hard time seeing pellets when I drop them in.
Am I correct in assuming that this film develops because the water's not moving? (I have no airstones or bars running in the tank). I used to have a very slow air bubble in the tank and the whole film issue started once I took that out.
Just wanted to make sure there's nothing sinister brewing in these tanks.
Thanks.
