Getting established and flourishing. Go Plants!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

On another note. Did 50% WC on the 20g Angel tank. Just one old girl in there with three coreys. And did a 50% on the 60g 4' tank. And shook off the filter pads in old water. But, after I added a second C02 system on my tank the plants are loving it. Pic is before and 30 days after the C02...

Two of my cardinals are having a rough time. Pretty sure it's Neon Tetra disease parasite. Their bodies don't look right. One has a small hump near the tail and the other just looks kinda bloated. I don't think it's dropsy. Anywho. They are in the hospital tank with zero parameters on all three...

Thanks @ImACoolGuy. I needed to attach it to something :) but it's growing well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Finally added a C02 system ( well a second one: still got the yeast sugar one too) on my 60 community. The plants are starting to perk up. They have root tabs, T5HO double build 48" and EcoComplete substrate. Take a look. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok. So I tested my KH and GH in my 60. I recently lost two cardinals ( had for 8 months) 1 neon (6mo) and two new neons. All the rest of the fish are fine. (Zebras, yoyos, guppies, white clouds, cherry barbs and rummynose). My KH is a 4.5. Which is great for my plants and tropical community...

I'll check my KH. My ph is higher that I'd like. 7.6. And I can't get it lower. It's the tap. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What's PPS pro or El dosing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is Rodi a plant? I have a LOT of plants in there already. S.Repens, Bacopa, swords, crypts, red Rubin, Java fern and Java moss, and ludwigua. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh the neon has been in there for 5 days. Was drip acclimated. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Soooooooo, I've got a new neon who is flashing bad. And he has a 'scrape' on his head. I checked my water and even after my 20% WC yesterday I still had .25 ammonia 0 nitrite but nearly 40 nitrate. Yikes. I did fert with root tabs yesterday. That might cause the spike. I did a 50% water change...
