I live in berkshire with very hard water. I currently keep cardinals and they have outlasted many other species in my tank. I dont try to alter my water in anyway to suit my aquarium. I just stick to what works with my water, luckily the cardinals have been a success as they are stunning fish...

There are many large oak trees near me that have been hit by lightning. There are large pieces of branch that litter the floor around the dead tree. This wood is barkless and is not rotting. Can it be used in aquascapes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just concentrate on small areas at a time. The algae will turn red, greenish then to a white and die off. You can treat more than once for...

I dont know much about your lighting strength, but in my opinion 10hours of light is high. This will put a lot of 'growing strain' on the plant. Anubias' are very low light tolerant plants. Easy to grow and interesting plants when in the right conditions. Will suffer heavy algae and deficiency...

Well ive kept co2 the same as before. Ive backed lighting intensity right down. Lights are suspended very high now. Ferts are EI standard mix but only 5ml macro and 5ml micro per week in a 60litre tank. One standard 50% water change every week. Another partial 30% water change midweek if...

Through many months of transition this tank has developed into a low tech tank. This is where we're currently at... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
