Root Rot?

Hey guys I know I had gotten myself some root rot a few weeks ago but added bennies and more airstones and she cleared up. But... As the new pearly white roots grow more of the inner ball becomes root rot... the outside white ones continue to grow fresh new white roots all over the place while the insides of the root balls slowly slime after it... running 2 air pumps a 15 lpm 4 ouput and a little walmart 60 gallon aquarium 2 output one. I have them split into 2, 5 gallon bucket dwc's in a tent kept at 72F... I'm almost at a loss. They appear to be growing fine after the first bout of root rot but the slime is slowly growing inside out... Please any help would be much appreciated.

It appears that your water level is to high but hard to tell from the photo. It should be atleast 3" from the bottom of the net pot.

You could try to top feed and let those "bennies" flow through and put them to work, might have to do it for a few days or more couple times a day.
