Ok! Thank you! :)

Sounds great! Oh and I'm not in any hurry. Just want things working as smoothly as possible. Will definitely do that then ;) Thanks so much! Will update as soon as I have any news!

About 20 or 30%? Is that ok?

Regarding floating plants I have access to these 2, which one do you recommend? Phyllanthus fluitans LIMNOBIUM LAEVIGATUM Also, how much water do you guys recommend me to change then? And how often? I was thinking of the usual 50% once a week, but will do whatever is needed ofc! :) Thank you for...

I'm sorry, I do realize that the way I explained it is indeed confusing, I'm gonna try to explain as best I can, since I didn't actually keep a super strict record of times/days, etc. I know the tank had ammonia for about 2 weeks after I started the dark start. Then slowly ammonia started to...

No, it is actually more of a sulphur smell. Wish it was the earthy smell, that would be a lot better news since I actually like that smell... I already did several WC's, mostly 50% but also some other bigger ones, 70% and even 90%. And still after 1 or 2 days the water is yellow again. Sorry...

Hi there, so I've been having a very strange problem with my new tank. I recently started a new setup where I used about 12L of brand new Amazonia substrate (the original, not the V2) and for hardscape I used Seiryu stone, previously washed before placing in the tank. I did a dark start...

Yes, that was were I was planning to add it. The outflow ;) I'm leaving as is for the time being and will make use of the tap if it turns out to be too much, especially once I add fish to the tank. Thanks again!

Hi, yeah it is brand new and I do believe it will lose some flow in the long run, but still seems a bit strong to me. But I actually thought the same thing you're saying when I got it, better to have too much and reduce it than not having enough. ;) Thanks for your nice words, I hope I can have...

Guess I'll just leave it then. Several people say that the flow is good as it is, so who am I to doubt you all? :) Thanks for the help!

Indeed!! It does look like that's it :)

Well, in that case I guess I'm gonna leave it as is. Guess I'm overconcerned for nothing really... I was just worried that the flow being too strong could be hurting the plants instead of being a good thing. Yeah I think he is super cute and just couldn't remove the poor thing from there. He...

Oh that is very kind of you, but I am actually in Portugal. I do realize that it takes time to notice any difference, but it does affect you when you put so much money and heart into something, only to have it fail... 🥲 The only good thing I have going is that I have no fish yet, and that makes...

Indeed frustrated I am... :( I did lower the light and increased the co2 but most of the plants were too far gone I'm afraid... Starting to lose hope with this tank to be honest.

Yep, mine seems about the same or maybe a bit stronger...

Looks a lot softer than it is because the left zone is now pretty empty, cause believe me, it was way stronger on the plants in that left area. Been having a lot of issues with the plants and already lost a bunch of them, so not gonna invest anymore until I see some improvements in the ones I...

Don't have many plants now on the left or back left cause it was a lot worse on those, but you can notice the rotala in the back really swaying and it was a lot more violent when I had more plants in that area of course. Also, notice the trembling of the lily pipe, never had this before lol...

Hi, sure. Just need to turn the lights on....sec please :)

Hey guys, so today I decided to do a little rescape since most of the plants had completely melted and the tank was full of dead plant matter and debris everywhere... I also placed the wood closer to the glass on the right side so it doesn't cast so many shadows. I had to cut a piece of the...

Hi everyone, just got this filter a couple of weeks ago and I'm wondering if anyone with a 60p finds it has too strong of a flow? I am using a reducer with 13mm Lily pipes but even still the plants are really swaying... Waiting for your feedback! Thanks ;)

Really appreciate it, honestly. Been having such a hard time and didn't want to bother anyone else with my issues. You guys are great and I'll be sure to give updates and post pictures of the progress. Thanks again!

Yes makes total sense! I'm sure I won't forget about this in the future. Hope this works! Will keep you updated on the tank :) Thanks so much!

Hi, I changed 50% water for the first week daily, 2nd week every other day and the third week every 2 days or so. Now I am changing around 50% every 3 days. I used Stability from Seachem and when I changed the filter, also used the bio media that was in the previous filter. I believe the cycle...

Makes sense! So how about turning it to 30%? Do you think is a good idea? Gonna turn up the CO2 a bit too and see if it makes a difference.

Hi everyone, I've been having a terrible time with my new setup and getting desperate as I've already lost many plants and as a consequence buckets of money down the drain. To give you some context, this setup started a bit more than a month ago and the specs are as follows: Tank: Ada 60p...
