I just LOVE IT! Can I have your TANK!

Not much has changed over the month (or however long ago the last post was.)
I have moved some plants around and took out rocks to make room. I see now that the plants are slowing down in growth and I'm still fighting the BBA.

But here are some pictures I took that I think are cool.

@marko@ · 11-07-2012, 11:48 PM

those are some really great pics. particularly love the one of the cory.

Very nice tank. I can't believe I missed this one.

Andrew H · 11-08-2012, 09:53 PM

Whoa really cool tank. Nice colors too; looks great.

I am jealous.

very very nice work!

BBA usually is a sign of insufficient CO2 relative to the light and ferts available in the tank.

Thanks!!!

I will start on some ferts now. Whatever Edward gave me......(I trust people way too much) and I guess I can also add some excel. My (NEW-YAY!!!!) drop checker is a nice lime green and my ceramic disc diffuser can't take more CO2.

But is it beginning to be a problem. Maybe shrimp can help.

I is really hard to take pictures of the fish... They never sit still! In the picture they are all in a food coma.

I'm having problems with BBA because my co2 is low. The nano glass def. that is in there just can't keep up. I'm looking for a bigger one to replace it. For now I will clean my ceramic and lower the psi so that I get a fine mist and not bobbles. Also, at the NY peeps meeting I was told how to use h2o2 and got a syringe. So I have done that yesterday and today the BBA turned a bit red. Hope it works.
