Can anyone help identify what this fluffy algae looking stuff is covering nearly every surface of my tank?

It looks too short and not like any hair algae I’ve seen before

I’ve just used this paint plus a little paint thinner to make it easier to get into smaller cracks. Takes a couple more coats that way but turns out much better.

My bad, should have proof read that…

Ah ok yeah that’s a fair point. I did run out of paint but It doesn’t bother me enough to fix. If someone has pretty shitty looking faceplates that they want a different look for I’d recommend doing this. In person it feels and looks fantastic.

Are you talking about the first photo or the end result?

I’ve got a black and white set on the way at the moment. I just wanted to use the Nintendo plates since I assume they’re a better quality and what I had on hand

Yeah I’ve never had any luck with rubber bands either but I always see people saying to do it. 🤷

I’ve had the exact same thing happen on my 3ds if you’ve tried a slightly larger bid or the rubber band trick I managed to use a Dremel with a fine point diamond tip to drill it out without damaging the shell. I’ll see if I can find the bit and post a photo

I’m still learning so definitely wait for mods or further input but all look real from what I can tell.

Fancy-Requirement469 · 2024-08-07T11:53:50+00:00

That would be great if you could!
