Ive had the 10 gallon up and running for close to 2 months now, I have an aquaclear 20 HOB w/ about 48w of light running for 10 hours. I do DIY co2, and last I checked(<cough>last week<cough>) it was in the 20-25 range. I did a a replacement of my riccia mat and next day I noticed the water looked far from clear, and the next day it was pretty nasty lookin. I did a pretty large wc yesterday which helped a bit, but its back. I do dose ferts but havent since this happened. I can still see the back, but its murky.
I also have 2 amano's, and 4 cherry's, 1 of which is expecting. Today I swear I saw a baby but cant confirm. Are there any special things I should do to help out the little guys?
I cant do a nitrate check as my test kit is jacked, I can test the others though, I ordered a nitrate and a phosphate test kit today.
These are the tests I can do:
Amm=0
Nitrites=0
Nitrates=?
Phosphates=?
KH=14
PH=7.2
co2=27ppm
Things are acting ok, riccia is pearling, shrimps are molting. So maybe I'm over reacting
