Recently purchased some red cam;
tank is 29 gallons, treated with two canister filters one HOB, one Rena--all mech/biological filtration--with very little surface agitation, even though I do not beleive excell gasses off
fertilize with seachem excell and flourish; have a uv;
light is via pc 195W and is 6.5watts a gallon
substrate is approx. 2 inches or so of eco-complete
I situated the cam behind the rock formation in the tank, it looks like it is really reacted to the light (in a good way), aside from some minor color loss on the lower extremities-- however the cam stems are no in the substrate; questions:
1) as a a stem plant that seeming is getting all its fert from the suppliments is placement in the substrate required
2) is excell a tolerable alternative to a CO2 system
3) will use of excell be compromised by uv (turbo twister)
4) thought on eco-complete substrate--should more be added, should another product me mixed in?
