KAISER
Fish Fanatic
Well today I added another five bunches of plants, rearranged the rocks a bit and put the bogwood in. I steered clear of variagated plants and got some more vallis and grass and a dark leafed one for the front. I changed about 25% of the water. I bought some Plant Gro fertiliser and added as instructed, anyone else use it? Is it any good? Made by Hagen btw.
Then I transfered two platies from my daughters tank, took a small squeeze from one of her sponge filters and added some of her tank water to get the cycle going.
A few hours later and my readings are...
ph 6.6
ammonia 0.25 ppm
nitrite 0 ppm
nitrate 0 ppm
I cant believe how red the platies look in this tank, the lighting is great!
Oh, and will the platies eat the plants??
