Hi,
the past few weeks I have seen my plants getting covered with detritus matter....might be diatoms might be dirt...so I have decided to do plenty of water changes. I have been doing 3 water changes a week for the past 3 weeks and still the tank is as filthy as it was when this phenomenon initially showed up.
I clean my filter every 3-4 weeks and I have 2 ottos and 2 guppies in a 40L tank. If you need more info about my tank which I don't think you will, its all here:

So if its diatoms what do I do and if its dirt will it go away eventually with water changes?
Thanks
