Hello Folks,
Well after a year of battling with High Tech / Algae problems etc. it`s time to move on out, or Try my chances at a less trying regime.... Low Tech.
I have read many of the posts about how to do this, and followed the relevant Journals, so think that this is my way forward.
I have a great deal of ADA "africana" Soil that I originally bought from The Green Machine when I set up my High tech Tank, and am now confused (and reluctant ) as to whether to Scrap it all , and start with Normal Soil, topped with Filter Sand. ( It cost me an Arm and a leg !)
Would it be possible to reduce the amount of ADA at the Base, and cover with Pool Filter Sand, or is the ADA on a completely different Dimension ?
My Filtration, Lghts, Circulation etc. can all be re used, and my plants are now in poor shape, (except a few) that I will be choosing a complete new Scape.
Appreciate anyones comments, as the Forum is always a wealth of knowledge.
Thanks, Paul
