    +1 on the paper towel.. It'll soak the scum right up! Although, just a temporary fix.. Check out getting surface skimmer.. I ended up buying a lil attachment for my canister filter and it works greattttt.

    Yea it got it right up! I checkout my skimmer and got a new Airstone for it. also I noticed that I didn't wash my hands a few times when I stuck them in the tank and Im compulsive with putting lotion on... so I think that added to it. Idk lots of guys probably dont have this problem.. but its a thought
