Hi All,

Can you please tell me about some clear gel with white dotted stuff start appearing in my discuss tank,... Firstly, i have some tetras, 3 angel fish and 3 silver shark, 3 bristle nose with lots of plants in my discus tank. over the weekend i change 50% of water. i put prime, discuss geo liquid, acid buffer in my aged water. few days later i found some CLEAR GELL with dotted white spots,.. i do not know what it is,... can you guys able to identify it for me... is that harmful for my tank and if it is how can i remove them. i also try to remove the snails that appear in my discuss tank..

Sounds like snail eggs.

Do you have snails in your tank?

I have to agree sounds very much like snail eggs, you also mentioned you have had snails popping up ... have you introduced any new plants, thats how i have noticed them sneak in.

apparently loaches are really good at getting rid of snails
