despite having near armageddon in my tank for the last attempt to kill BBA it is Back!!! mostly on the gravel growing in nice little clumps. I am not longer convinced it even is BBA.

CO2 level have been over 60 ppm everytime i have tested it, Evening morning, mid day... plus i even dose Excel, dose ferts to EI... Re-building plant stock, not over feeding fish...

Thanks to everyone who is sending me plant clipping, i hope they help as i try to go at least moderately planted.... is there anything i can do in the mean time... Peroxide is not even an option :?

:shocked!: (that is how i feel right now!)

What am i doing wrong????? :cry:

I would turn over the gravel. When your new plants arrive. Remove as much of the stuff as you can.
that occured to me. right now i have a layer of eco compleant (~ 1 inch deep) below my ~ 3 inches of gravel, i was hoping to keep the layers, but i guess if it burries the BBA then i can live with the loss of th layers...

it is not as bad and wide spread as before but i want to nip it in the bud! :twisted:

here is the requested pic

Thanks Everyone!!
