Hello,
Well my 75gal first planted tank nothing really special. Currently stocked with some beginner plants: Java Fern (12) tied to driftwood, Anubis Nana (2), and Java Moss. I will be adding Amazon Swords as soon as I can get my hands on some decently sized ones (LFS carries smaller sized). I wont be using CO2 on this tank simply don't have the funds to setup a automatic CO2 system which is what I would like. In the future I am sure I will (MTS) My lighting is 2X54w T5 HO 10k spectrum (running only 6hrs) which I will be replacing with 1X54w 6700K lighting and 1X54w T5 HO "Plant Grow" on either 6-8hrs times. I hope my lighting isn't over kill which I am scared it is ?
I am currently dosing with Hagen "Plant Gro Iron Enriched"
Schedule is 2 cap fulls (5mL) nightly every other day. Water changes are every 5 days 50%. I am most likely going to switch over after this bottle to Seachem's Flourish Excel. What should the dosing be? Should I be dosing with anything else?
My parameters are: (API Liquid Test)
pH: 7.5
KH: 3 drops chart says "0-50PPM"
GH: 6 drops chart says "50-100PPM"
NH3: 0PPM
NO2: 0PPM
NO3: 5PPM
If you guys gave ANY suggestions please feel free to school me, and I am sure you all will!
OH Yea pictures...
I layered the java moss to thick so the upper portion is dieing but new moss is growing in nicely.
