    Posted in a different section and got no response so.. This is my 3 gallon picotope I plan on planting using a finnex clip on. I'm using manten stone and fluval stratum (mostly because I couldn't find any eco complete here, and flourite was to expensive). Just wanted some fellow...

    New setup 3 gallon

    So I started my hardscape, I have lots of rock but I think I might go with something like this. Just wanted to hear some opinions.. probably going to use some HG, maybe some moss, b. Japonica, medium light plants for sure. But it won't have co2.

    Lighting

    I have no experience with this lighting but I think I might give it a try soon.. the RioRand spot light or spot bar seems to be great. 6500k, 3 watt LEDs and very high lumen output.. 1200-12000 lumens (lol). I know it's not meant for this application but it has mounting equipment and what seems...

    fluval stratum with sand cap.

    So, Ive been reading how messy and dirty fluval stratum is. I was wondering if it was a good idea to just treat it like dirt. I was thinking about putting a nice and or gravel cap on it so it wouldnt cloud the water as much. What are your guys suggestions/thoughts on this? Would it just be...

    blue velvet shrimp

    So, I ended up buying these at a local auction before my shrimp tank was even ready (stupid me, I know) I think it's close to being cycled as I added an old sponge and the ceramic filter media from an already cycled tank. Right now I have them (10) sitting on the side of my 10 gallon in a...

    flow and algae

    I have a c2 on my 10 gallon planted tank, it seems like it should have enough flow but algae grows in various locations, EXCEPT areas with lots of flow.. I was thinking about getting the hydro koralia nano 240gph. But I'm scared it will be way to much flow.. I just need a bit of good movement...

    water sprite question

    So my water sprite didn't seem to grow for about a month, then I switched tanks and put a couple seachem root tabs in and it started growing fairly well. Anyway, the problem is, old growth looks terrible. It's yellowish, and falling apart. But new growth looks nice and green. Why is this? Here's...

I have 2 amano shrimp but they eat some and it grows back. I've been dosing excel at 1-2ML a day as I have shrimp in the tank...

    New!

    Just started into the aquarium thing. I have a ten gallon set up at the moment and a 3 gallon waiting for the right betta to come along. (Pictures later) I get lots of excitement from live plants and aquascaping moreso than fish itself. I try reading up on plants before I get them but I rushed...
