Default Ahh its good to be back..

Hello all, well I recently moved to chicago from north idaho and am happy to
say that all the fish survived the three day journey. I do however have a
somewhat wierd white (kinda spiderwebby) looking stuff within the 30g now
that it is set up and running(for the past two weeks). I think its due to
the plants being transported in a ten gallon w/o the proper lighting etc.
During the trip, which in turn prompted some rotting. Major water changes
and filtering the substrate has taken care of much of this but I am curious
if anyone else has had this happen, like I said its somewhat
chunky/chalky/and spiderwebby on the plants and in dark places under the
driftwood where it gets pushed from the water circulation. The water
conditions are good due to keeping two filters running during the trip (one
for the transport ten g, and one for the 30g once we arrived). Thanks in
advance for those who followed this all the way to the end.....which is
here.
Cheers, Brian
