Everything is growing nicely. Diy Co2 is finally working well turn it off at lights out and back on in the morning for I set off to work.
Co2 1bbs ; 2ml fertiliser daily; lights on for 6 hours ; every 2nd day 50% water change. Think next week going to go to very 3 day water change.
 
It been a few weeks since my last post. The tank is doing well turning the lights up by 1 to see if the monte carlo to grow a bit more decent. Light is still on for 6 hours.
All the long hair green algae has gone. Got a bit of green algae on the rocks don't mind the look of it so it can stay for the time been.
Busy doing water change
