I put cucumber and steamed carrot in my Biorb for my apple snails to eat. Recently it's started going furry after a couple of days. It looks like mould but it's fixed on pretty firmly. Could it be moss? Pretty much everything in the tank is now furry (including the snails). I introduced some bogwood (that was boil soaked for days) and some Riccia Fluitans recently, could that have brought something into the tank that's causing problems? What can I do about it?

Veggies should be removed if not eaten after 12 hours. They get moldy and rot, fouling your water.

Sounds like the humidity is very high and damp. It's almost certainly mould. See which vegetable / fruit lasts the longest in the conditions and keep to that as much as possible!

Snails move slow.
Try putting the food closer to them, so they can eat it before it gets moldy.
jerk. :)
