no worries........it's just a bit of mold that is essentially harmless...the mold just an opportunist taking advantage of the active yeast growing on the media surface.......once the larvae start "turning over" the media it will soon disapear.....

>> I just made a few new fruit fly cultures with some homemade media (kyle's recipe from page 2) and I did every thing right and sprinkled some active yeast and top, but now the area around the yeast is a metallic green/blue color. The media includes vinegar, but is this mold? I hope not. Thanks for any and all input.
