How overgrown/thick do you let your stem and other plants get before trimming?
What about your Blyxa Japonica? It grows like a veritable weed in my tank and a single plant the size of a matchbox within a month or so turns into half the size of a basketball that can be then broken down into...
I pulled down my planted tank that I set up in 2007 recently and made it an easy care fish only tank, gave all my plants away (the tank had become almost impenetrable wall to wall C.balansae) in preperation for some extended travelling around Australia for my wife and I. Well circumstances have...
Plants use oxygen at night.
What else do they do in the hours of darkness?
Do they use iron thats in the WC?
Do they take up other ferts?
I'm interested in this. If anyone has any comments or links to something to read....I'd be much appreciative.
Hi All,
I have made myself a DIY external CO2 reactor to replace an internal Dupla ladder type CO2 diffuser. I haven't used it as yet. Here is a photo of the reactor -
My question is:
I will be running this off an Eheim 2217 which has a rated flow of 1000lph.
Will this flow be to much...
Just wanted to ask when your plants are pearling and the O2 is running out of them and going to the surface. If you look through one of the longest ends of your tank, are the O2 bubbles going straight up or does your flow in your tank swirl them around?
I'm confused about flow and turnover. I see the results that members here are getting (compared to other forums) with having higher flow and higher turnover rates in their tanks.
My tank is a 4x2x2 holding 450 litres (U.S 120g - IMP 100g) and currently for flow I have two (2) Eheim 2217's which...
Does anyone have to run their CO2 this fast? I'm using a Dupla Reaktor 400 and I run my CO2 for 11 hours at that speed.
Is this an abnormal amount of CO2 to have to use?
Is hardscaping pointless sometimes? Do we get too hung up initially on hardscaping a tank?
I see so many posts on plant forums of people rescaping and spending hours and hours on their hardscapes tweaking them, to in their own eyes, perfection. Yes they do look great, but later photos of the...
