Thanks! I'm hoping that fuzzy growth on the driftwood will go away soon.

Does my delhezi have good or bad markings?

The dels markings are cool. As long as you like them then it has good markings. The white fuzzy stuff is good food for algae grazers. Its common to grow on driftwood and fish like loaches and barbs like to eat it.

Too bad I have no algae eaters, loaches, or barbs in this tank.

it comes about when you over feed, cut back on the amount of food you give and go a good filter cleaning and it will be all good. Nice polys btw

I thought it came with new wood?

nope IME over feeding was the cause when I got it.

I've had the wood in the tank for 2 days. 1 of those days I didn't. How could it be from overfeeding?
