My dad's got a 9 gal Uk tank with a variety of tetras, harlequins etc in. He mentioned today that he has suddenly got a slimy, whiteish/clear algae or bacteria appear in his tank. It is all over the ornaments, plants and inside the glass. He said he could quite easily cleaned it off with a scraper. He's checked his stats which are all ok, and he's carried out every other day water changes. He's had problems with cloudy water recently, but that seemed to clear for a few days until now having this slimy stuff. Any suggestions?
 
How long has the tank been set up.
How many fish and which type.
Water stats in ammonia,nitrite,nitrate, and ph.
Do you preform a gravel vac.
