Hi all,

So in checking my WTFs' 10 gallon tank for droppings, I noticed the base of the branch that I placed in the substrate has some loose white mold growing there. I am going to remove it in the morning, but is this normal surrounding plant life? The substrate is Eco Earth Coconut Fiber, and the branch (which was dead and taken from my back yard) was placed in the terrarium about 12-13 days ago. The tank is fairly humid (between 60% and 70%, occasionally up to 80% during certain times of day).

Any steps I need to take prior to adding things to prevent this? Is it OK? Are there measures for spore treatment that I should be taking now?

Thanks!
