Yeah I get the idea of EI dosing but have started at just 50% of the dose and just doing it by hand to start instead of the auto doser. If this plan works il hook it up and forget about it. I have very high lighting available from a radion led which is only running at 40% and don't think the...

Very nice, everyone likes a shuffle around now and then. Brings fresh ideas. Also I agree the black background makes the colours pop in the tank

Thanks, yeah red sea do lovely tanks, but you do pay for them mind

Yeah I was thinking soon as in waiting till around the 2 month mark. Although in my last tropical tank they were in after 1 month and didn't loose any. But I'm not rushing. My pH is around 6.2 anyway so nutrients are going to be far less toxic as is.

Perfect thanks chaps. At the moment just 15 harlequin rasbora and a pair of kribensis. It's only 3 weeks old now, thinking a shoal of Cardinals will be joining pretty soon.

Thanks it's 250 litres with the sump. I happy now with more room to work with

Just removed a large piece of bogwood out to make more planting room. Which do you think looks better, before or after? As you can see the wood was taking up a lot of space and I think distracting, agree or no? Just waiting for the s. Repens to be cut and fill in the bottom right corner. Cheers

Just had a read up and decided on EI dosing so picked up a kit of powders mixes that I can put through the auto doser.

Ahh thanks for the explanation. So I need to find a suppliment that is complete and able to be dosed daily really. If anyone does this I'd like to know their product. I did look at the nutrients company as they are local to me. I will add that il have a decent amount of fish though so I think...

Hi all, iv had my tank going a few weeks and all is well. It's pretty heavily planted, well lit and co2 injected. Which fertiliser would you say is a good all in one solution? I have flourish and the co2 system came with some ferropol. I was hoping to be able to just hook something up to my...

The is livestock in, 15 rasboras and a pair of kribs. Still cycling really. The drop checker is a premixed jbl one, il move it near the diffuser and see what it says tomorrow. Cheers

It's the clear jbl tube that spirals the bubbles up. The test has stayed a dark green so far as I upped the amount of co2 to something like 4-5 bubbles per second

Ok yeah maybe, Just this morning iv added a split to the return nozzel and powered up the return pump to 4000lph so the flow is pushing a bit more on both side of the tank now. I also took the drop checker out and blew in it, it did turn green so that's fine I think. Put it back in and raised...
