I come home and look in my tank and see this. Anyone know what it is?

This stuff starts at the front center of my tank, and goes around to the back right corner.

OH MAN. That must be that dang Sloffas Cloudamorphias that you got from Tim. He's been trying to get rid of that dang thing for months. He tried to pawn it off on me too. I'm glad I didnt take it.

J/K :-D

But seriuosly, what Tim said. :)

Looks like it might be a mucus net from a vermetid snail. They feed by creating a web and sucking it back in with all the food particles.
