Hi there, nice looking tank! What king of substrate are you using?Not dosing calcium.
I have a new test subject. Test #463 will be a longish one.
In the meantime I messed around with my iPhone filters so this pic is a cheat pic really. Maybe that's what ADA do [emoji14]

I see that's UK and you live in the UK lol. Probably not available in the US.Hey thanks! It's a soil substrate (John innes no1) capped with eco complete.
Not dosing calcium.

I'm looking for a new substrate. I currently use potting soil. I'll be setting up a new tank this summer, so I'm looking to go a different route.
I have major algae issues, and I'm not quite sure what it's stemming from. I may have put to many root tabs in or it's from the soil or its from the lights or its from overfeeding. It might be a combo of all that haha. Can't figure it out.

Thanks. Well I'm just using a surface skimmer. I couldn't even tell you what the flow rate is. I bought that powerhead you can see last week but it's too powerful so I don't switch it on I just haven't taken it out yet. Waste of £30.
The skimmer is a good idea because it drags the co2 bubbles in and spits them out across the tank.
Whew I got behind on this thread. Just curious, why do you have to uproot ludwigia to trim it?
Also, obviously, I agree that your tank looks amazing.
I didn't think about that. Makes sense.
