Hey All,

My BioActive setup has been going for about 1 1/2 months now. This white ball mold just visually started up a couple days back. We do have ISO and springtails, however I have never seen them. The mold is starting to come to the top layer as seen in one of the pics. I am worried that I will have to redo the setup? I am going to air out the cage by keeping the doors open while the crestie sleeps. What should I do, is this serious enough to take action or will it correct itself over time? Do I need to get more springtails to combat this?

I've had it to some extent in some of my cages and I just ignore it. It stabilizes and/or goes away after awhile. If you're misting more than once a day, you should probably keep it at once a day.
