I was just wondering if mold in a tank is harmful to darts? And if so all or only certain kinds?

Any mold that pops up in your viv shouldn't be harmful and it usually dies off pretty quick. If you have springtails or isopods in there they will take care of the mold for you also.

That's what I had read or heard somewhere just wanted to make sure. One of my 10 gallon verts has a little mold growth on the vertical background so it's a bit hard for the spring tails to find I guess. I was just going to add springs directly to the mold on the back ground

I had one viv in its early stages get some white fuzzy mold growth on a brom eventually it went away and have not seen any mold on the brom since. I do see some mold on the viv floor on decaying leaves and usually it does not last long the springtails take good care of it.
