There are a lot of variables in using pressurised CO2 and getting good plant growth development but one factor I rarely hear mentioned is fish stocking levels in a tank. Does it play any role in the use of CO2 and plant development? Does the person with the beautifully aquascaped tank and just a handful of neon tetras swimming around to make the plants look nice achieve their results because low stocking levels contributed to the overall setup? Do some people who achieve spectacular plant growth just not have any fish at all and this is why they get such good results. I'm sure I'm probably barking up the wrong tree but I'm desperate to identify why after a month of CO2 injection there seems to be a missing variable that is not promoting any form of plant growth in my tank. So, do fish stocking levels play a role at all and if they do what would that be?
I should mention my tank is of course both well stocked and heavily planted.
