White stringy/fluffy stuff?

[lemonthelotl]

Hey - has anyone else dealt with this white fluffy/stringy stuff coating all the things in the tank? I can’t seem to get rid of it. pH is 7.6, ammonia at 0, nitrites at 0, nitrates stay in 5-10 range. I did a 90% water change and cleaned everything in old tank water and scrubbed sides of the tank and nothing is helping. I used Stability and Pristine during water changes (and Prime of course). Anything else I can do? Anyone know what this actually is?

It looks like it's probably hair algae from an excess of some kind of nutrient. I've been dealing with that for a while. If you throw some hornwort in there, it'll go away rather quickly.

That’s easy enough to try!! Thank you!
