This is what i found popped up seemingly over night. now i have a problem with my brain solution being merky? all the time. i have thoroughly disinfected everything (heaters, pumps, hoses, new air stone) but i still seem to be having this problem. I have spoken to many people around the country and people have heard about it or occasionally seen it but noone seems to know what it is. it has 2 parts a thick 2-3mm toughish/rubberish skin and under that is a slimey gooey smelly similar colored goop with darker areas within it.

can any one help me please ?

I, for one, would have welcomed our new canine overlords.

Sounds like light getting in. It's normal for this algae to build up if light is presented

no dude, but clean it off as it will build up and block water flow etc

I think that might be a little more serious than "just clean it off and dont worry about it."
