Now i have my co2 up and running properly (with DIY mixture) i have ordered-
ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia (3 liters) - Normal
Mono Potassium Phosphate - 250g
Potassium Nitrate - 250g
Tropica Hydrocotyle leucocephala
Tropica Ludwigia repens ''Rubin''
Tropica Plant Nutrition 500ml
Tropica Rotala rotundifolia
+ Anubias barteri eyes of AQUATIC MAGIC

I will try and fit a few more plants in my nano (subrate has hardly any space left for more plants) but the rest will go in my 100gal along with my discus (and other community fish ),swords and mosses etc.When i add the ADA soil is it correct that i will have to wait about 3 weeks for the levels to be stable?Then i will add a betta ,amano shrimp & cherry shrimp!
 
I'll get some pics of how it is now tommorow.Is there a certain day aquaessentials delivers?
 
goood :good: Next week is gona be real fun :shifty: setting up a 270 gallon this,then rescaping my 100gallon with loads of plants,bogwoodand more. :hey: Now this :-
 
Yes the ADA AS will cause a massive NH3 spike, so run the filter and monitor. But plant heavily and that will help, plants actually prefer NH3 to NO3, but you need LOTS of plants. Add fish once the levels have returned to normal.
