17.1 Gallon Rimless Tank Aquascaping with Ohko (Dragon) Stones - Jungle Aquascape

I'm not sure! The regulator is showing at around 40psi and I have it running 1bps. The plants growth is good.
The Pollen 40 was recommended for tank up to 90-120cm tank but I only use for a 60cm tank. I bet it need high psi to work well.
I used an Atomic Diffusers (not from GLA but similar) before. The ADA diffuser is a bit easier to come out bubbles than the other one. But they both work great! Probably we just have to choose the look of the one we like here

Is there a recommended operating psi for the ADA diffuser? How do you think they compare with the GLA Atomic Diffusers? They are certainly prettier.

Nice growth with the AR mini and HC. I can only get growth with HC...in a terrarium
What's the frilly plant in the last pic? Pogostemon erectus?

Many people do the dry start method to get good carpet with HC before flooding the tank. I think it's not necessary if as long as you have high light and good amount of CO2, they can grow fast submerged.

You are correct! That's Pogo Erectus, the big one on the right, the small one on the left is Rotala Enie

Good growth in 2 weeks, please ignore the Minitaiwan moss on the front left, it's temporarily until I figure out where to put it
