Aquarium Advice Addict
Well, my calculations say that I have enough CSM Plantex to last me for 11 years, so I'm naturally looking for other things to do with it.
My sand substrate is superior to my previous gravel for allowing roots to hold, but seems to be nutrient poor. The sand is too dense for mulm to slip down in. One sign of the lack of nutrients is the massive amount of air bubbles I get developing in the sand.
Has anyone made thier own root tabs from clay and CSM? I've heard it suggested before, but not seen a recipie. Do they need to be kiln-dried or just air dried? What ratio of CSM to clay?
