Hi All!!
I have this problem with my tank.. There is always some jelly-fish like stuffs that stick on the tank walls... After I rub them off, they will appear again after few days, even after I did a water change!!!
They are all around the tank walls.....

I have had some experience with a similar "substance"
It is either just another of those strange algeas that won't hurt anything and will dissapear in time.
OR
It is bacterial in nature, but not harmful.
Generally as a result of something in the light spectrum breaking down or being a bulb type that is not normally used.
If your using "standard" indoor lighting sometimes that type of lighting generates wierd spectrums and you get "wierd" stuff in yer tanks.
Nothing to be overly concerned about.
How old are the bulbs that you have?
Could just be a breakdown in spectrum and that particular critter is eating it up."I am not the chicken plucker. I am the chicken pluckers son, and I'll be plucking chickens till the chicken plucker comes!"
