I'm looking for a big piece of manzanita wood for my 75 gallon discus tank. (48 long 18 deep 21 high) If you know a store near Chicago or a website that would be great thanks.

Here's a pic of one of the pieces I got from them. I just ordered 2 more last week for the other side of the tank.

That's odd I use the same substrate but when I tried dwarf hair grass it all died

Great looking tank and livestock! Wouldn't double dosing pps pro essentially be EI?

No, it's not even close. When I had this tank heavily stocked with plants I was doing triple the recommended pps pro and at the end of the week my levels remained the same. When I did ei I would have to do a 50-60% wc because of the excess nutrients. I had deficiencies with just the recommended pps pro so I slowly upped he dosing amount to where it's just enough for plant uptake without an excess so I don't have to do weekly 50-60% water changes. This has worked out well for me, it took months of trying to figure it out but it seems to do well for me.
