TNC Complete dosing

That is a nice boulder! (also plants looking lovely 🙂 )

Haah thanks! I got a few decent rocks and had the intention of using more than just 3, but as I was planting them there just wouldn't have been enough room for plants, so the plants won 😅 The rock itself is Frodo stone if I'm not mistaken

Hi all! I just wanted to provide an update on the tank along with a few questions if anyone has any guidance 👌

So after the suggestion to drop the TNC Complete to 3.9ml daily with a 50%+ weekly water change I have noticed that the Rotala has bounced back wonderfully, leaves aren't going transparent on it and it's growing much faster.

I have noticed that I seem to have more GSA although I'm not too concerned about it although would be nice to have less, but the main concern is some of the Monte Carlo leaves seem to be transparent, although it seems the Monte Carlo has been growing much faster recently also (needs a good trim back this week) I'm not sure if the transparency is due to a liquid or Co2 related issues, I will attach some pictures to show that:



The other issue is that the BBA seems to be growing pretty strong, this was an issue before dropping the TNC dose to 3.9ml although spot dosing with the Excel does kill it back, but it ends up coming back pretty quickly thereafter:



Thank you for all the help overall!
