I think it appears after water changes but it could possibly be related to feeding. It's a new tank and right now the specks are on all the glass surfaces but no where else and do mot move. They will go away in a couple days...thoughts?
 
Do you use any type of water conditioner? My water conditioner does this sometimes if I use a lot of it during water changes.
 
it's a type of algae. i think it grows from the "aloe vera" thats in some water conditioners. i switched to safe and it went away. it was mostly from using stress coat or amquel plus.
 
Yea same w/ me. Stress coat +1 but my tannis unfortunatly dye it a brown
