Hi there,
I've been doing freshwater planted tanks for a little while now, and I'm very interested in adventuring out into the saltwater world.. I've been doing tonnes of research these past few weeks and I'm thinking of building a reef tank that will sit on my computer desk.
The equipment...
Hey guys,
Alright so I bit the bullet and am doing away with DIY CO2 as it's too inconsistant with it's output and I believe has caused some BBA as well.. I've purchased this as all the reviews say it works very well!
Aquatek CO2 Mini Regulator
Already have a nano glass diffuser and the 24oz...
Thanks for all your suggestions! I purchased the Finnex Fugeray planted 12" LED light. I figured it's better for my plants to have this light then the other stronger lights you posted for the shimmer effect. Hopefully it works out!
Thanks for all the suggestions! Now I'm still curious.. will the Finnex Fugeray lighting improve over what I currently have which is the Fluval dual compact lights?
Right now I'm running dual Fluval mini power compact lamps which are 13w each, but I really enjoy the look of LED as they give everything a bit of "Shine". What would you recommend for my Fluval EBI nano cube? My dimensions are:
13.7 x 11.8 x 11.8 in

The tank is 8 gallons actually, but I do see your point.. Not enough water left to mix well with untreated water. Looks like I'll stick with to the bucket method.

Actually I wonder if you can help me out. Currently I have DIY C02, dose 150mg of potassium every second day and 1/32 tsp Seachem comprehensive on the off days of potassium. All my plants are growing well except for my Anubias as it has brown spots all over the leaves which eventually turn into...
Here's the album:
7.9 Gallon Planted
As you can see, my glossostigma elatinoides is really taking off in the front, and pearls almost everyday. My Anubias shot up a new leaf that's almost as high as the tank within a few days as well! The Micro sword is pearling constantly as well and is...
I just ordered a bottle of Seachem Potassium, so hopefully that resolves my issue. An online fertilizer calculator said I need to use 4ml of potassium 2-4 times a week. Does this sound right to you?
I think you might have misread my post about lighting. I go for 4 hours on, then 4 hours OFF, then 5 hours on again. Yeah 13 hours would be crazy haha.
