My No More Water Changes 38 G
Hello...
Emersed the rest of the land plants in my tank and removed all the mechanical filtration. No more water changes are necessary, will just replace water lost to evaporation. The roots of the plants will maintain pure water conditions. Ammonia and nitrite tested "0" and the nitrates at 5 ppm. The water doesn't get significantly purer than this.
The fish will provide the nutrients the plants need and the plants will return pure water to the fish. A balanced tank.
