Thanks for your reply :) No its not that.....its brown largish patches all over the plant. The newer leaves look washed out green, quite pale. One tank have x2 24W and the other has 1 24w which i will be upgrading to x2 24W. Yes i do have co2 going into the tank. My smaller tanks also have...

Hi everyone, I have 2 fish tanks both at 69ltr each, i have been dosing with Tropica + plant. I find this is not working for my tanks, my ferns have brown spots/patches all over. Can someone please help me with powder ferts as i have never used them before and wouldn't have a clue where to...

Hiya, Has anyone decided to do TPN+ recipe and selling them as a 'just add water' mix?

Thanks for the info. I have had apple snails for 2 years not and have bever had a problem with them eating plants. I was only worried about the otto's being with the shrimp. I have had them before but gave up as they never lasted long but wanted to give them another go as i have got plenty of...

Hiya All, Is it ok to have otto's in a shrimp tank with 2 apple snails? Many thanks

No, i don't have the adapter :( . That would be brill if you could have a look for it :D Many thanks Steph

Hi everyone, Does anyone have any experience with this system? Was wondering if there was any other cannister's which would work with it other than the 74gm hydor one. Thanks Steph

Thank you for your help. I have worked it out to be 1 ml per day or 2ml every other day. Thanks again Steph

Hi all, I would like to dose the tropica plant nutrition + on a daily basis. What to you think would be the ideal amount? My tank is a 60 ltr cube. Many thanks Steph

Thanks for your replys. So Ramshorn can stay out of water with damp cotton wool and trumpets have to be in a bag of water.

Hi all, I was just wondering how you would package trumpets and Ramshorn snail? Would you treat a Ramshorn snail like an apple? In damp cotton wool in contairner Thanks Steph

Im so glad that there is abit of hope there, really did not want to remove the wood and plants.

It is strange as i did keep putting boiling water onto it. The only problem now is it's in the tank with plants on (took me ages) with shrimp. Maybe i could scrub it off every day?? Maybe dose with melafix (just in case)

I have got 2 bits of Redmoor wood in my tank. Today i have noticed today it has got white fluffy fungus stuff growing off it. Before it went into tank i had it in hot water over night. Has anyone else has this problem and is it something i should be worried about it? Thanks Steph

It is such a lovely tank.....looks alot bigger than it is. Keep up the good work Steph

Re: flygja's tank: Forest Edge What a lovely looking tank......keep up the good work

The yeast is long and thin, i have it going through a glsss diffuser. I have decided to go for a differnt make for my 50ltr tank (Red sea) as the bottle is bigger. It has an electric diffuser which i find is better. I have just bought a boyu inline difuser but havent tried this yet as i don't...

I use the hagen unit. Fill to the first line with sugar, almost a full tea spoon of yeast , then i fill to the top line with luke warm water. Would you be able to to dose with Easy Carbo aswell? With the Easy Carbo, can you dose with shrimp? (wondering for my other tank 30ltr) Thanks Steph

Thanks for your reply. What is EasyCarbo/Excel route ? Im using the diy yeast mix at them mo but it doesnt seem to be enough (drop checker blue) I think i would rather use something that you can get in the UK and what other people have used. Seems good thou. Steph

Hi all, What would be the best system to use for a 50ltr planted tank? Thanks Steph

Hi all, I curently have a 40 cm in length tank..... is there an over the tank light unit you can get for this which will fit? Many thanks Steph

So say if i have the tank heavily stocked, well planted with high lights which one would i go for? I have also got on high light heavily planted with not much fish, what one would that be? Just want to make sure i get the right one. Thanks again for all your help Steph

I really like the first one :)

Would you have to get the Tropica Plant Nutrition and the +version? Steph

Thanks for the replys. I may go down the route of using Tropica plant Nutrition as i don't know much info on the dry ferts. I have 3 small tanks in total all under 50 litres.... would the tropica be ok for this and is it safe to use if you have shrimp? Thanks again Steph

Liquid ferts that you buy. Im using the seachem rang but it you seem to have to buy a few bottles to cover everything which is a pain. I would like to use the dry mix but would not have a clue where to start.

What are your views on liquid ferts? Does anyone use them? Thanks Steph
