    lighting distance for frogbit?

    lighting distance for frogbit?

    Hey, The frogbit has been thriving in my tank since I added it and 3 times now have had to chuck loads. My frogbit had hairs on the roots until I added Siamese Algae Eaters and that's one of the first things they cleaned so I'm assuming its algae as there's no hairs on the roots nowadays.

    Grey foam for between tank and cabinet

    From what I've been reading people surgest a slight over hang not underhang to make sure the sides arn't suspended and the weight supported.
