@REDSTEVEO is it worth me adding a small dose of ammonia to help feed the filter? If my tap water nitrate level is 40 then surley that will never go down. What would be reducing the KH/GH?

@REDSTEVEO cheers but a little to late, i added a little today to check filter hopefully it will be gone again by tomorrow.
I suppose thats 1 way to describe it , I mostly picked easy plants with varying texture and colour.Looks like a real cosmopolitan approach to your planting, i like it tho. I hope for my first attempt to be as good as yours.
Source was 'Kleen Off' choosen by recommendation for safe fish tank use, it is 1 of the few without any additives. I added 2 x 2.5ml which took my Ammonia reading to 1ppm yesterday lunchtime, this morning this had already been reduced to 0.5.I suppose it will be all right, depends what the source of the ammonia was from. I have heard of people adding hydrochloride or sulphuric acid straight into their tanks to reduce the PH. Not for me though I'm afraid.

Mine are the same, I have only seen some them pearl once ! should they be pearling all the time ?Good progress - My plants are growing as I can see the new growth - they never seem to pearl mind (im obsessive over pearling)

I cant reduce dosage as I'm using TNC complete on daily basis dosing 3ml (recommendation is 20ml once per week).You should reduce your Macros dosage, or change the recipe (if you do your own solution), to dose less Nitrates.
No idea - as long as they are growing I guess that all that mattersMine are the same, I have only seen some them pearl once ! should they be pearling all the time ?
