Dirty Glass

[GARY]

I have a 20 gallon freshwater Glass aquarium..there are "2" Goldfish
inside....Every thing there is alright there....My problem is the water
is always clear---But i am always having trouble with i slippery film
thats on the inside of my aquarium glass and it also starts to get on
everything inside the take....Its not Algae because its clear....So if i
wipe down the inside of my take today in two days it will have that film
on the glass...Could someone please tell me what this could be....I am
using a good filter system with plenty of airation....Thanks for your
help.....Gary

good guys, wipe it off only front surface... eventually leads to nice growth of
helpful algae.
