Hi guys,
Not so much of a problem more a general query here. Basically I was having issues for ages with my tank & wasn't getting the growth I wanted etc.
Finally I realised that I was messing with my co2 too much and too frequently - so my tank was unstable.
So I have left my CO2 stable at the same rate for about 3 weeks & the tank is loads better. Now over the last few days I have really noticed more pearling (I had to check I put the diffuser back on the right tube - inlet) after cleaning as it looked like mist being blown around. Also my DC has changed to a more lime green than a yellowy green colour.
My question is this: does the increased plant health / growth affect the colour of the DC? Am I right in thinking that after 3 weeks the plants have now adjusted & are utilising the CO2 properly & as such there is less CO2 in the water column due to the plants using it?
Thanks
