Re: Oily film



I am pretty sure the oily film I get in my tanks (and probably you get in
yours) is indeed "protein scum", which is why airstone/surface agitation
helps get rid of it. As Kaycy sort of mentioned also, I didn't start seeing
this film until I began mixing crushed flake food in with frozen
bloodworms. I get rid of it by simply sucking it off the top when I do
water changes.
