OK, so first time freshwater tank build for me.
Elos System MIDI 36gallon tank
Planet compact LED light
Fluval 307 filter
Hydor ETH 200 In-Line External Aquarium Heater
DOOA CO2 System Kit
Aquatic Life RO Buddie Four Stage Reverse Osmosis
Manten stone
Some hornwood
Tropica Aquarium Soil
Sand
Plants:
Peacock moss
Misc bucephalandra's
Bolbitis Heudelotii
Rotala Macrandra Yellow
Rotala Indica
Rotala Wallichii
Rotala Rotundifolia Ceylon Pink
Baby Tears Giant
Staurogyne Repens
Eriocaulon Lineare
No doubt I am going to learn along the way! My layout didn't give me as much planting area as I had thought.
So far slight raising of Ammonia, that's it. Haven't added anything to the water yet.
When to start CO2 dosing? Should I be adding a small does of NPK fertilizer now or wait 3 weeks? Should I stick with the 8 hour lighting cycle or reduce it in the beginning? Anything else I am missing?
