I am in love with your tank and I want to steal it from you.



Have you added any Co2 to your tank? And your discus are absolutely gorgeous!

Edit :: What are those red plants in your tank?

 

[jbennett]

Cheers Fufanu360, didn't use any smilies just for you.

Only one problem Littlefishie, If ya steal the tank, I come with it. .
Yes I do use Co2. If ya go to page 2 of the thread, about two-thirds down is the full tank speck.
Many thanks for the kind comments.

Longhorn forget the DIY Co2, get the Real McCoy. Ya can't beat Pressurised Co2, Ultimate control, BPM an all that. I'm doing 80 bpm, when I do a trim of the plants I pull it back to 60bpm for a couple of days (2 or3 days), then bump it back up again. The trouble with Half measures is ya get Half results. With a proper Co2 set up you can turn it off at night, plants don't use it at night. Mines on a timer along with my lights, Comes on and off with the front pair of lights, 15 minutes later my second pair come on.
Regards John.
