oh really, good bcaucs it was so ugly toocapillary matting is very good at growing algae. You should probably get it out quick, before the roots take hold. Perhaps dry it on the clothes line for another time.
good info , thanksAs you are using pots, you can probably skip any coverings. If you find the tray pools instead of draining properly, then you should keep the light off that standing water though. Any water sat in the light for a while, will lead to mold and bacteria growths. Some less visible than others. They are taking your feed and oxygen though, and then the colonies are flooded into your pots and tank. It can get messy. Often F&D is run as a clean system, with h2o2 or chlorides to keep things clean.
