    Easiest carpet plants

    Lobelia cardinalis, but it gets taller than most. Trim tops and plant to keep short and increase carpet density. Very low maintenance otherwise. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Alex's 20 Gallon Planted Journal

    What's your surface agitation like? You might be gassing off your co2 too quickly. Sent from my SM-T310 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Anyone dose seachem iron?

    I dose about 1mL/g every other day on my pps pro micros day. AR couldn't be more red, l. glandulosa is super pink and purple, and the tips of my pogo are pinking up nicely. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Survey: How Much Glut Do You Dose Daily?

    If your fish aren't doing well, it's not due to gluteraldehyde. New fish do fine when I've added them at various stages of my increasing glut dosing. Neons, cories specifically (increasing schools and shoals). The reason I slowly up my dosing is due to escalated plant growth, nothing more. I've...

    Petsmart vs petco

    Where in Texas? The ones in Austin and the surrounding areas are pretty decent! Sent from my SM-T310 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Petsmart vs petco

    Your petco supplies salt water fish? Wow. None of the petsmart or petcos in my area do anything but fresh. Sent from my SM-T310 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Betta build, one more tank? Sure....

    If you message BML, they can custom cut you a fixture to the length you're looking for. Worth a shot, imo. ;) Sent from my SM-T310 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Brookster's new new new dual sat+ build - bml pg. 78

    I've been running my BML at 50%. I reduced it below that for the last week. When you rotate the dimmer, the point right above the dimmest setting, right where it makes a big jump in brightness. The dimmer scale doesn't have the cleanest scaling, if you follow me. Like 33%, maybe? My l...

    Brookster's new new new dual sat+ build - bml pg. 78

    My pogo certainly isn't slow growing. The BML did wonders, then the diy co2, then doubling, then tripling my glut (36mL split dose, 18mL/12 hours), but then the last month I started PPS pro and added home made Mebbid root tabs, and BOOOOM. I'm getting more than an inch in growth per week. I even...

    Brookster's new new new dual sat+ build - bml pg. 78

    The dot on females will have blue specks. Is the back tip of the dorsal (top) fin rounded or pointy? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    BCarl's 26 gallon Bf Build

    Once my pogo took hold, it's gone bonkers. I thought my l. repens was growing well - after I removed 75% of it, and spread the pogo stems out, it doubled in size. Shoot, everything has been going well after I tripled my glut and started a vigilant pps pro regime... Sent from my...

    Sk3lly's Tank Progression

    What about some ludwigia glandulosa. I'm digging mine. Very red, but slightly different red than AR. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    BCarl's 26 gallon Bf Build

    I've never shipped or received shipped plants... Probably gonna let it grow to the surface before trimming. One of the stems has three large stems off the base. Mine, too, melted like crazy when I first put it in. Lost most of their leaves, and the stems melted at the root - stripped the melted...
