hello...A quick request for advice.

I have a new 4ft tank on the day 14 of the set up cycle. I have moderately planted the aquarium and have also added two pieces of driftwood - no fish.

I however noticed that there is some hairy fungas like spores, a few mills long that is growing on some parts of my drift wood. My tests read:

temp: 28.5
Ph: 6.6
Am: .25
Nitrite: .5
Nitrate: 0

Is it cool to leave it ? Or is there something I should be doing and/or take the wood out and clean it off ?

I don't want to disrupt the tank and the plants by taking out so I was just hoping some one could off any advice.

Don't you find that every day of new tanks cycle seems like three times longer than a normal one ?..........'Patience Rupert patience'...sorry I have to keep it.

Thanks all ~ rupert
