Here it is. Do I need to let it go any longer before scraping it off? Would be nice to see my tank again. Thanks.

From what I remember reading you are supposed to let it just peel itself off but I may be mis-remembering things...
I'd wipe it good and before you, drain the water out and try and get most of it, UV/micron filtering might help some, but good CO2, ferts, Mg++ etc............more plants etc..........clean filter etc.
I've taken it from tanks, but I've never been able ot keep it unless I messed with the tank and removed most of the plants, and killed the CO2 etc.
Some folks have not been successful at leaving it alone, then cleaning it after 3-4 weeks.
If it's a one time disturbance etc, then it will go away, a few had success, but others not so much.
Some used EM antibiotics and had success, but others have tried it 3-4 x now and failed to get rid of it.
Some simply tweaked their CO2 a bit, others bent the reflector away from the front of the glass etc.

Thank you Tom. Will drain the tank way down and wipe it off, then make sure everything else (ferts, C02, filter) is as it should be.
