Sorry, double posted. check out here: http://www.gregwatson.com/proddetail.asp?prod=IronChelate I only use dry ferts, and he's good, and inexpensive. Wait wobbles, I just noticed you are "down under", not sure if he ships there, but you can try to find a local distributor, or hydroponics store.

Never tested for Fe. Too many people I tust say that that test is too inconsistant. With all the flourite, and using the Plantex CSM+B+Fe at 1/8th tsp I would doubt it's that though. I may have to do the blackout thing

sorry here are the tank specs. I need to update my signature. Aquarium: 55 gallon with 60 lbs fluorite 20 lbs gravel Filtration: Eheim 2026 Pimp #168 with Fluval surface skimmer Lighting: PC 130 watts of 6700k PCs 12hours, 130 watts 10K 4 hours. Co2 suppl.: 10lb tank with Milwaukee al in one...

OK, I goofed up big time. My tank was coming along nicely, with the exception of some thread algae, and high Nitrates. My hornwort was growing out of control, and picking up detritus, so I decided to remove it, BIG Mistake. The result was a Green water bloom. You can see my tank specs in my...

If you need tp take this to court, I suggest you make a neck fbrace for your angel fish! :twisted:

FWIW, I agree with Travis & Malkore, 2 hours is a lot of time for a cannister filter to go anaerobic. Also, Reefers used to do that with powerheads to create waves, and it burns out the power heads faster than leaving it on constantly.

One question: why drill a hole in the top and create a possible leak? either let the bubble get sucked into the input, or drill the input below the water line, and feed the Co2 tube there.

People tend to care less about fish for a few reasons: 1) you can't cuddle or pet a fish (exception LFS had a cat fish that liked to have it's belly rubbed) 2) For most people fish are food not friends (Sorry Bruce, Anchor, Chum, and Dory) 3) There is the myth that fish don't think fish live...
