White cloudy slime, cotton like

[Stacyvamp]

Hello, I have a question. I recently noticed that my saltwater tank started growing white cotton like slime on most of its decorations. I will attach photos. Not really sure what it is and what to do about it. Is it dangerous?

It's just fungus from things dying on the rocks. Take the rocks out and hose them off, then put them back in the tank.

Is it fine to use regular tap water for this?

tank water seperated into a barrel would be better for this as theres good stuff on those rocks aswell as the fungus

yep just get the extra fungus you still need everything else for the tank to thrive like it has
