Well its an over stocked African cichlid tank. All paramaters are great except nitrates. I even went to doing 2 water changes a week and the lowest I can get them is 40. I have a hob biowheel 350 I was using as a riparium but just decided to do a grow bed on top of the tank to help out. I have glut and all the ferts I need for pps pro but don't really need to dose anything but glut and the plantex. I was just wandering if there's anything I can put in this that will help suck up the nitrates. Here's what I just put in there.
.........:..................
From back left corner
Row 1: mangroves, water sprite, peace Lilly, java moss
Row 2: potted hygro compact, potted crypt wendtii (trying to see if I can get it to go emersed, guppy grass
Row 3: microsword, unknown 1, moss balls, unknown 2, ludwigia ovalis
Row 4: HC, staurogyne repens, pothos clipping, marsilia sp.
Unknown plant 1
Unknown plant 2 the submerged leaves were shaped and sized like amania gracilis but where green on top and almost purple on the bottom I did a dsm to get it to grow emersed.
Well that's what I was doing and was wandering what some good nitrate sucking plants are.That I can add to it and if there's anything in there I should take out and do something else with. The lighting is a 48" t8 shop light 2x32w about a foot above the grow bed type thingy.
