Plants & substrate are all sold. Thanks.

**NOTE** THESE ITEMS MAY NOT SHIP UNTIL LIVESTOCK IS PROPERLY REMOVED FROM THE TANK. If we agree on a price I will assume you will pay when I am ready to ship and I will remove the item for sale (May be a week or so). Shipping will be determined on the item and buyer. Please let me know if you...

In order to start breaking down my tank the first thing that needs to go is plants and substrate. There will be a second post for equipment once all livestock is distributed. The following is up for grabs: S repens Blyxa Japonica Pogo Ludwigia Red Sp True Rotala indica AR Mini Erio Aquaticum...

Short answer is yes, plants can utilize ammonium nitrate quickly. I used a blend of Kno3 and urea. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I added some Urea (ammonium nitrate) to my macros solution and MnSo4 to my micros to establish a 2:1 Fe:Mn ratio to clone TPN traces. Curious to see some results Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Thanks guys! Going to start playing with some trace mixes the next few weeks. Will post any interesting findings... Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

That stinks! The downoi wasnt doing too hot under just the stingray clip. I also have been a little low on phosphates and begun to see a little deficiency. It sure is nice to be able to grow s repens again! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

This tank has been in cruise control. I added some tiger shrimp, and removed the Seiryu stone to keep the KH down. I am considering some kind of rescaping this tank but I am not really sure what I want to do. The RCS breed like crazy. I also added the BML dimmed at 10% for about 3 hours and...

Going to resize my aquariums and that means changing light fixture sizes. I am selling my 24inch BML Dutch style light with 90deg beam angle. I am including the dimmer and mounting legs. $175 OBO plus shipping The second light I am selling is a 18 inch Current Sat Plus (please note this is...

Looking forward to it! Are you still running the BML dimmed way down? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Wow that stinks! Any plans in mind? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Thanks guys, been way too long no having a good s.repens carpet! I just wish the downoi would fill out a bit. Also i have been pretty impressed with the brightwell. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I haven't talked that much about this tank. This tank is by far my favorite since entering the hobby. After the high tech world I think a lot of people underestimate the fun of a low tech tank. I am very busy and traveling with work quite a bit at the moment and a high tech tank would be very...

Double post

That's the strategy for most of my trimming.... Also I seem to occasionally lose one or two adult RCS, how long should they live for? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Any tips on trimming downoi? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Nah! Going with the 17g rimless. It's perfect with my BML. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Thanks guys!! Bigger things coming! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Update time! Plants are really starting to grow in, hoping to see more downoi sideshoots soon. I have tons of baby shrimp scouring the bottom of the tank. I am hoping to add tiger shrimp in about a month or so. So far I have been a little disappointed with the buces as they still do not look...

Merry christmas TT Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Assuming that is the absolute min and maxes that is not too bad at all. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Id say 35 ppm is a better "target" for med-high light. I think you could get down to about 6.3 without issues, slowly increase it and keep and eye on the fish. Or lower the amount of PAR Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Playing devils advocate: The video was made by twinstar, which they are clearly biased. Also lowering the co2 in the left tank would make it seem like the growth is slower... Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Thanks! Honestly its not that hard. You just need to think ahead when planning which plants to get. The great part about this tank is how slow everything grows. I have begun to re-appreciate low techs. In high light tanks its easy to lose control fast, low tech you have plenty of time to fix...

Here is the update! Tank and shrimp are doing well. Added some buces today, they didn't look great after shipping but we will see. I am running a little too lean on macro so I will increase them a bit. Enjoy the pics! [/URL][/IMG][/URL][/IMG][/URL][/IMG]
