I have had my hospital tank up for about 2 weeks. First I was treating a zebra for an eye injury with melafix. I am now treating my female Auratus with jungle parasite clear tabs and food and i started noticing this cottony growth on a few rocks (substrate from cycled tank) Any idea what it is?

It's not uncommon to see white fuzzy growths in tanks that are being treated with meds.

If your filtration isn't adequate and there isn't enough water movement in the tank, it will be worse than it would be if you have great filtration on the tank.

Are you treating the auratus for bloat? What are you doing about the main tank that she came out of? It will need some sort of treatment too, even if it's medicated food.
