Hello Peeps,
I am fairly new to all this, So here is as much as I know..
My Tank is a 90ltr. With JBL Aqua basis, covered in fineish whiteish Gravel,
No co2, weekly fert Tetra Plantamin, sorry that's all my local shop has.
I have blue leds which come on at 7-8 & 20-22 then the main lights are two aqua glo 20 watt T8 bulbs, which are on 8-12 & 16-20, total of 8 hrs.. are these bulbs enough or is this classed as very low light I am thinking of changing to Power Glo Bulbs
the max power I can have is 20w due to the ballast and 24 inch as the 30 inch is the same size as the tank and will not fit in the hood.
Now I have had some success in growing plants & have split some of my plants the long ones java or Amazon sword not sure, but I am sure I can do much better.. the current tank has been running for 5 months which I have had a problem with Hair Algae, due to the phosphates in my local area, the water is very soft around 2.100 Clarke and 1.68 dh, I seem to have this under control for the last 3 months or so, the tank has slowly grown and grown from a 40 litre...
Now this is my tank as it stands, I am looking at moving the wood and java moss on the left and planting a bit more to make it look a little more natural .. but my main question is about the lights
Mmmm now how to add a pic
