Hi ive been trying my hand at a planted tank for the past 6 months now but it looks pretty much like it was when i first started, no rapid growth and if anything a decline on health of plants.
currently my set up is as follows
125ltr tank which house my discus breeding pair, corgys x6 tetra x 16 and two bolivian rams.
have two 4' t8 40w
cat litter substrate 2" deep
CO2 lights on checker is green-light green on at 12pm off at 8pm
lights on at 4pm off at 11pm
dosing EI Mon-fri (Mon,Wed,Fri 50ml, Tue,Thurs 25ml trace)
only think i can think of is light being the bulbs are above tank water 12" in an enclosed unit and inside of unit painted white no reflectors. any help much appreciated
