Week Six Update
LOL You guys crack me up!
As far as GDA goes, you NEVER get rid of it completely. It just hides and waits for you to slip up just a tiny bit so it can come back out, grab you, and then laugh its evil laugh as it covers your beautiful leaves! The stuff is EVIL!
I just did a plant trim down Friday with a WC. The 'Cuba was 5" below the water level. Look at it now. LOL The stuff goes crazy with CO2. The Glosso, seems to me, is growing taller than I think it should. It's carpeting well but also putting out pretty tall runners. ??? Maybe the 6 hrs only light period to fight algae is causing it to "reach". I not sure what to do to get it to stay short. I need some tips from you "Glosso growers" out there.
The "change" is that I took out the Red Nesaea as it looked terrible. Not growing and melty, algae covered old leaves. I took some of the new runners off my Crypt wendii from the 16g and put in its place at the back behind the DW. When it gets a little taller, I think the green leaves and different shape may look pretty good. Let me know what you think. Pictures were taken with Nikon D5300, 50mm F1.8, full auto in jpeg fine format. I'm still taking forever post processing RAW in Lightroom. (note to Brian_Nano, lol)
Take care all, Thanks and God bless for your interest. Brian(OS)
