Glosso with 1.5wpg?

I'm going to look into getting a new hood for it, as well as a decent tube.

Yeah, It'll be a couple of weeks before I plant no doubt anyway.. Should I put the rest of the media in if i'm going to plant?

I'm currently putting another tank together and have a Eheim 2213. Should I be putting the carbon pad in? edit : I plan on planting this tank, so im presuming I shouldn't, but any advice is good.

I'm undecided as of yet, I have seen this might look at putting that on as well, should give about 3wpg.

Any recommendations for lighting for this?

purchased it from aqua essentials

Ah, good thinking! I also purchased the trace elements mix. I can't find any instructions on mixing this. Is there a link to any guide?

Hi, I have decided to go EI, the only problem I have now is that I have the powders ready to mix with some RO water but what do you use to store the mixture in? Is it easy to just use the powder form??? Any advice would be very useful.

i did a 60% water change, seems ok now, clear again. Thanks for the advice.

will it clear?

Hi, I just changed the contents of my co2 after 2 weeks with the DIY mix. I connected it up went and had my dinner and come back to find the tank cloudy. I have disconnected the co2 for now. Is this something I did wrong? Have i taken the correct precautions?
