Found something strange...

[Ilike4hornedchams]

So I found some paper towels on the ground near my chams and realized my fogger was leaking water and my roommate didn't tell me and just threw some paper towels on the water.. I was cleaning this up the other day and found something growing.. What is it? It wasn't really that close to any of my Chams so health wise I think they are ok unless this is SUPER toxic spore creating mold, so let me know it was about 2 feet from the nearest cage. (So pretty close in retrospect.. >.<) I already cleaned up the mold but if there is a mycologist that wants to identify it, I would appreciate it! It looks pretty cool too tho, mold ice crystals?

It has nothing to do with salt. Its Mold spurs for one.I can see the bottom is wood with finish ontop,and has leached in the wood.
Scrape it off,and clean with diluted bleach solution.I mean diluted 3:1 Three parts water to bleach. Now it has to dry before aplying a waterproof covering or membrane. You don't want moldy mushrooms next. Also wear rubber gloves please. Its the same as working mold removal.
Ever watch the Hoarders on TLC I think. They wear a Hazmat suits.
Its not enter Sandman, more like the Moldman Metallica Good luck sleeping at night.

I dont think so, but I can say the water IS leaking from a USED fogger that when I bought it it already had some good calcium deposits on the atomizer metal areas as well as the sides. Maybe there was enough calcium in there to may some calcium fungi monster?
