Dear IAH Members,
I'm finding leyer of some oily substance always keep floating on Water of mu Aquarium.
I remove this substance using Mug and Bucket once in 3~4 days, but this subscance keep re-appearing again and again!
I've kept FH in this tank and feeding him XO Humpy Head.
I've have equiped my aquarium with Internal Filter and one top filter, SOBO is make of both filters.
I'm posting picture of floating substance (White layer in Top Right Corner of Picture).
Experts, Kindly suggest, how I can overcome this Problem?
Regards,
Vishal |

Try using a smaller power head and agitate the surface, should help.
