Some say
Mold!!!
Others say mold and Isopods. Others say Deep clean!?
I have been doing some tests, with regards to mold and Isopods.
I seem to have deleted or misfiled the photos of the start of the test and the end of the test, and the problem is I have cleaned all the tanks.
So I need to wait for some more mold to grow in one of the tanks to reproduce the photos and the tests.
I have had my doubts that Isopods do not help against mold, spores and curtain thing that grow in ones tank.
As I said I doubt that Isopods help, and it is slowly becoming a truth, I know Isopods help for a couple of other things and they do a good job of it, I have a couple of photos I will post some recent pictures of mold that has started and is at this moment growing in the tanks, I will update them tomorrow when I get a chance to get the camera out.
First tank, has got mold, I added 20 Isopods to hopefully help curve the mold, as there was a mommy with egg sack, and I did not wont to go digging around and moving here nest to clean the tank out,
The mold started about 4 days after she went and laid her egg cases, the mold has spread through the tank almost doubled in amount, it is even growing a mushroom.
Any way, added the 20 Isopods and they have not helped stop the mold, it is still growing.

Will update pictures tomorrow.
Then just to show you how robust this mold/spore is, this substrate is kept bone dry only spray it in one corner, and still the mold grows, I have dug out the effected areas to hopefully stop the mold/spores.
I removed the first mushroom that was growing in the ladies tank after the crickets made meal out of it.
Then 2 days after that a new one poped up in exactly the same spot where the first one was.
