I've been daily dosing API CO2 booster now for over 2 weeks and my plants are growing well and algae seems to be better controlled. But I have noticed significantly more clear film floating on the water surface. Is this a breakdown product of the glut?

I've been adding glut to my planted 10 and 55g for months. Started with API, now use another, but never noticed a film. very little surface agitation on either tank.

Maybe it's residue from the algae that it's killing. I remove it with paper towel for the time being.
