Hibiscus come from warm tropical regions anyways. I had a hibiscus and it didn't start blooming until about May. Hibiscus are very prone to aphids so watch for that

Another is Epsom salts. The risk with soft water is the fluctuatiins of ph. Very bad for fish, plants adjust. I think you probably have amazing water for discus.

So I took out two of my LEDS. And changed the T5HO bulbs to (2) 6700 coraline and (2) 6700 fluval bulbs. Amazing popping color of the greens from the plants. One of the anubias started to pearl! Nothing else has at least nothing for very long. I'm going to assume I'm now hitting the head of...
Ok, thanks Mike, I guess I'll just EI as if it's a full 125. I haven't had algae buildup luckily. Plants still seem to be steady. Not growing out of control, but not dying

The sand trick does work if you don't have proper tools and require a short bend. You can also use your knee depending on how short a bend you need. I also will use a box wrench for applied leverage. Just some tricks of the trade. [emoji4]

I looked into them. Yikes! One costs more than all six of my led! But you do get what you pay for. Wonder if I would have to start collecting bottles to get one!
What kind of spread do you get with one?

So a few questions, I hear about the "siesta period" for aquarium plants. This meaning to turn the lights off a few hours. Does this apply if you are turning the lights off at night? Or is just meaning to turn the lights during the day only?
Also, this may seem like a silly question. When I...
Ok, so I added this into the tank 2 days ago. http://www.istaproducts.com/product/max-mix-co2-reactor-medium/ Seems to work fairly good. And I think what I am reading might have given me the answers. I increased my CO2 so my CO2 detector is almost yellow. The fish still seems perfectly...
Hey Rebel, I don't think any are really doing horrible, at least the ones that are still alive.
My tank temp sits about 79 F
Crypts seem to love this tank as does the anubias.
The plants I did have until recently that seem to suffer are java moss. I tried everything I know, put it in...
So if you wonder what my lighting is, this is the type I bought. http://uedata.amazon.com/BeamsWork-Single-Bright-Aquarium-Fixture/dp/B007TW2N20?ie=UTF8&dpID=41ovZJRsDEL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_
They are apparently 400 lumens, and I have 6 of them on the glass top
Hello,
On my own, I've trying to read up as much as I could about planted aquariums. I became a lurker searching the internet to find a forum that would assist me with this. And voila! I found this forum and was very pleased to find this forum that is well organized and full of advice! Thank...
It is amazing, the anubias overgrows in about 6 months and have to chop it down. Great people love buying the cheap unwanteds!
Here is a picture, don't know if you need more specific than this, but I will be glad to offer as much as I can to get some advice!
Newbie here. I realize all the information is probably here and this question has probably been asked a million times, I just don't really know where to look.
I have a 125 gallon tank (5 feet x 24 x 20) and the growth is somewhat very lacking. The only thing that does grow extremely well is...
