Is a molly and a gourami too much for a 3 gallon? My ammonia and nitrite levels are good. It's probably my light. I will probably have to cover it some more. Thanks for all the advice. I thought maybe the liquid nutrient too much and causing the algae to grow. Maybe I'll turn off the...

Oh really? Does it matter if half of it is covered? :D Would it be ok if I cut it off earlier? Although 5 hours is a bit short isn't it?

In two weeks I have added 3 Seachem Flourish Tabs into the substrate and have added a few drops of Seachem Flourish into the water for my java fern twice. I have always had a thin layer of algae on the leaves but now I started noticing my anubias's leaves has grown into a dark green suade-like...

Hi, I have a few questions regarding "high/low" lights and substrates. I've read that high/low light means that the plants are high and low maintenance and I also heard that "high" light means 3 watts per gallon. I was hoping someone could clarify this for me. I'm a little confused. :blink...

Thank you for all the response. All have been very helpful and informative. I was thinking of getting fertilizer for the substrate but why java ferns are on the drift wood. Is there a way to fertilize those? As for the sword, I'll get some tabs for those and for my Anubius. My driftwoods...

My rhizome is in the shape of a Y. Can I cut it? Sorry I'm new at this.

Hi, will the Monte Carlo grow with liquid carbon source? I have tried dwarf baby tears and they die on me. I want to get some carpeting plants and I like the Monte Carlo. Thanks!

I want to split mine but I'm scared I'm going to kill it.

Thanks for the link. I will get some more nutrients in there and see if that helps. Thanks for all the help. I bought a testing kit but just realize that it doesn't test for phosphate or potassium. :oops:

I've had the tank for about 2-3 years, but it only had a beta and the java fern for the longest time. I started to add more plants and fishes in about 6 months ago. I haven't tested my phos/nitrate levels yet.... Probably should do that. I've actually never tested it before. I change half of...

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong with my plants. Please help! I have asked some people regarding this but they don't really know what's wrong. My plants seem quite unhealthy and I'm not sure what to do. There seems to be a slight thin layer of algae covering the leaves. The leaves seems...

Hi, I have always had a fish tank but it consisted of a beta fish and a small bowl. I branched out and started becoming pretty serious when I saw aquascaping. Can't wait to be a part of this community. I'll be in your care!
