Hi All,
New here and in need of some help. I set up my tank last weekend with just hardscape and soil left it for a week to settle in and iron out any kinks with lights etc. I planted my first lot of plants on Saturday just gone and noticing some issues. I had ordered my plants as I was expecting my CO2 to arrive but it has not. I am currently dosing with API CO2 Booster 1ML a day as per instructions, I am also dosing Evolution Aqua 2ML per day as instructed, but I have noticed my plants seem to be experiencing some issues, please see the pictures below.
Is this due to Low CO2? My parameters are as follows;
Temperature
- 26C
NO3 - 50
NO2 - 0
GH - 8D
KH - 10D
PH - 6.8
CL2 - 0
NH3 - 0
H2O - 3MG
I did 50% Water Change when planting and planning a 20% change tomorrow morning.
I have 15G tank, with a ehim 300 pump, using bio rings and purigen for the filter using an internal filter.
I'm not sure if what I am seeing is normal or if there is something I need to change, as I say I am waiting for my CO2 to arrive and currently using liquid CO2 and do not have a Drop Checker as that is arriving with the rest of the CO2.
Any advise and guidance sorely sort!!
