My nanotank was looking great before I went on vacation. My frogbit which was previously yellowed were thriving enough that I was regularly growing some out to not overcrowd the surface. I typically dose Fluorish Excel daily and Fluorish Supplement weekly. I left for just one week. Someone came by to feed my betta twice, but I didn’t have them add the Excel. I come back and this gross mold had sprouted on my driftwood which was sterilized by baking only 3 weeks prior and was doing fine without a trace of mold before I left. And my frogbits are literally being eaten away. Even the salvinia look more brown on the edges than before I left.
Do I toss the driftwood? Resterilize it? Just clean off the mold and do 50% exchanges?
What about the frogbit? Toss all the plants with mold? Trim the leaves that are dying? Sterilize the rest? Other plants seem to be fine.
What do I do when I leave for a week again In August? My husband will make me toss my tank if I start wanting to stay home for the tank!
