Aquarium Advice Freak
I have some Vallis tied to some driftwood in my tank and it looks the best, the leaves are all fully richly green and the java fern (i'm actually not sure if it is java fern compared to the other.. "java fern" in my tank) on my driftwood is rooting and all the leaves are fully green.
However, the other vallis planted in my substrate AKA 50% aquarium rocks from Petsmart 50% Eco-Complete has a lot of holes in the leaves, has really yet to grow vertically and the leaves are see-through.
I have had DIY Co2 attached for about 4 days and I'm not sure why my plants aren't doing very good. My next step is java moss and I want some HC as well.
I have these lights on for about ...(14 hrs a day, yeah I just realized how much that was)
Coralife F/W T-5 Aqualight Double Strip Light-24"
28 watts = ~2.8 wpg (actually lower, right?)
I have had the vallis and a java fern for a few months but my tank still is not overrun like I feel it should!
Any ideas on how to fine-tune my set up?
Thanks, AA
(BTW, my goal is to have my 10g host healthy growing plants, 2 GBRs, otos and RCS. How far am I from this?)
