What is this and how do i get rid of it, it's a clear build up on wood. it's store bought wood, that i soak in hot water for about 7-10days to help get rid of some of the dye, but after placing in tank and a week or soo the clear substance is building up only on the smooth part of wood. I took it out and scub it down but now its building back up again. Any thoughts?
 
It's wood "scum". I would boil it.
 
Its just some driftwood mold. Its harmless and can be removed by scrapping it off, letting the fish eat it, or it will just go away within a few weeks. Many plecos will love this stuff.
