they are supposedly spores,

there's a mound/island in the middle of an aquarium I need to empty and take down, but it's made from mostly java moss, duckweed, some sort of algae, probably a couple of chain swords that were floating in there,

instead of trying to clean it up, and remove the algae and keep it clean, this happened, and I have to admit to quite liking it.

the picture is through the really dirty glass, from my phone; not sure I trust my phone anywhere else to het a picture you can see, maybe I will take out a bigger camera and see.

if it helps, it's under a Fluval 3.0 light, at maybe half power, for 8 hours a day, with ramping up and down for an hour before and after. (As far as I remember)

it looks like crap.

water is clear, there are maybe a few shrimp in there and pest snails, but the inside of the tank is covered with algae and I don't care to do anything ;) I worry the tank will fall apart if I try to clean the glass, a bit like an old rusty car.

I'm potentially going to be hospitalized for an indefinite amount of time, don't think I want to create work for someone else.

Looks neat!

Speedy recovery to you Sir.

Need a lot more time and a much bigger java moss island for you to be floated down the Ganges.
