Can i bleach drip moss using a 1:10 bleach : water ration, will this kill the moss and will it also kill the 'White fuzz/slime' that its covered in?
 
I tried Xmas moss in 1:20 solution for 20 seconds and they barely survived the dip. Whats the white fuzz that you're seeing? Might not be algae?
 
I have no idea what it is, but the shrimp dont touch it either do the otos, its just white slime coating the moss and well everything in the tank, it was only set up a few days ago though.
 
Please give a full detailed run down of your tank with photos equipment and routine

If they do survive what's to say it won't come back inyou don't dinthe underlining probl
 
I've NEVER had this in a new tank, I've set up a hood few.

Would be worth as I said listing the full set up, time set up, regime with the tank ect.
