with

>its also on the gravel in spots, and now its getting on the plants.
>Some of plants have like spider web effect of the stuff on it, with the
>slow water current giv9ing it that effect. Now is this because of
>too much light and not enough of plants, or something related to
>decaying food or matter of some sort. Thanks a million
