Impressive, I like this much more than the previous scape. How many individual pieces of wood are involved in the scape?

Just found this thread, not sure how it slipped past me for this long. I definitely like the increased width of the tank. In my opinion, ADA tanks are a bit shallow and can make it difficult to fit...

I use an ADA glass diffuser. I own 2 co2 inline atomizers, but I prefer the look of the glassware in the tank. If I used a reactor, I could probably cut down on the BPS, but it would still require...

I think mine took around 8 hours to reach the proper level. Took me three days or so to fine tune the rate. How large is your tank? I use a drop checker so I'm not familiar with the pH...

We recently discussed this on the SFBAAPS forum. Currently, I'm running my CO2 24/7. I'm able to keep the CO2 level constant at ~30ppm while running my bubble rate approximately 1/3 of what I did...

I've used 3 of these, 2 of them cracked and started hissing. I'm going to stick to clippard check valves for now on.

I had mine out about 2 months and was put under to remove them. I ended up taking a stroll to AquaForest, which I barely recall. The reason it's good to get them out when you're around 16 is...

Glosso in the front, Philippine java fern on the wood, e. acicularis or e. parvula (hairgrass), and not sure about the plant in the very back, kinda looks like needle leaf java fern to me.

A bit harsh, wouldn't you say? Besides, this isn't a traditional Iwagumi. The link provides guidelines, not rules.

It's been setup for about a month. But, I just got out all of the kinks this past week. I had a leak in my JBJ bubble counter where the male NPT meets the bubble counter. It's a clippard solenoid.

Leaking solenoid?

I just noticed this morning while my lights were off that the bubble counter is reading 1 bubble per 10 seconds. I've never noticed this before, should I be concerned about this? I normally run 3...

I would look into the aquamedic 1000's or into a RexGrigg DIY inline diffuser.

I'm having a hard time setting up my co2 regulator. It's a victor regulator with an ideal needle valve. When I get it set to the right bps it's great. But, when it turns off for the night and then...

Thanks, I hope so! The last one was kind of a bust. I think dry starts are the way to go if you can spare the tank for that long.

It's not pretty. Hair BBA took over everything. The belem wasn't doing well without co2, and neither was the algae issue. It makes me appreciate co2 though.

I'd be careful with adding crystal red shrimp, they're pretty sensitive. Also, the only shrimp that makes a significant impact on algae is the amano shrimp. As long as you don't have any fish, you...

It's going to look great when it grows back in, it already looks 10x better than before. One suggestion is to move that center stone to the left somewhere. Right now, the way you're pruning the...

I agree with Hoppy as well. HC is even known to grow very well (but slower) in lower light as long as all of the other aspects are taken care of.
