My 20 gal tank is running 5 months now.
4 weeks ago I decided to get rid of my plastic plants and replaced them with live ones
Up until then I had a nitrate removal pad in the filter stack, which was excellent, keeping the nitrates at 0. Even so, I still do 30% pwc weekly
My question is; should I remove the nitrate pad, or can I keep
It in? Do the plants need the nitrate?
My LFS keeps telling me I don't need to feed the plants, so I haven't
I have ;
anubius
Echinodorus
Hygrophila
Cabomba
Jungle val
java fern
Riccia & java moss
Thanks
