Hi, First, the feedback after 22 months of use: I never cleaned the atomizer in those 22 months. It never leaked and I never had to increase my working pressure. The working pressure is near 30 psi (2.0 to 2.1 bar). So, it is important to have a good CO2 circuit to avoid leaking in tube...

Hi In the nano in my signature, I have a nice Eleocharis background going great since 8 months of immersion without any trimming. I only control the new roots so that they don't invade whole tank. It is now becoming too dense and I noticed subtle signs of potential problems due to the density...

Hi, Facing difficulties to lower my GH and KH in my RCS 45L, I made this test: I filled half of a drink glass with Seachem Flourite Black Sand. Added RO water (KH 0.6) to fill the glass and stir it. After 3 weeks, I tested: KH 5.4 GH 8 :shock: Just shocked. Is this how my tank would go if I...

Hi, I got my hands on a sample of a moss I never saw before that's now in my tank Any help identifying it? It is much more structred then usual mosses I'm used too and leaves are much longer.

Hi, On my Nano that I dry started (see signature), the new leaves of P. Helferi were white. They looked healthy though and didn't bother at first. Now, I notice that those white leaves tend to show on the long term signs of weakness/transparency Not all plants are affected, but mainly those...

Hi, I need to attach some of my anubia to stones, but I can't use a fish nylon threads on those small places. I tried Silicone but all the glued rhizomes did rot :( I couldn't get some Super Glue. I found another option called Orca Underwater Glue...

Hi, I grew my Anubia Nana petite emersed this way, see the rockwool on the wood to keep anubia roots moist: I'm looking to a biodegradable alternative to cover my anubia roots and keep them moist, the time they root in gravel. As they will also root in the wool, I would like something...

Hi, I use between 1.5-2 bps CO2, 8h a day. My 2Kg (4.4 lb) canister lasted only 2.5 months before I see a drop in canister pressure (meaning end of liquid phase, so only few days autonomy). Is it normal for my bubble rate or it means I have some leaking?

Hi, For my nano (still emersed setup like a tropical terrarium), I just got some Anubia Bareteri var Nana petite (the very small variaty). I put some plantlets on a branch of my wood, 1-2cm above the soil. Soldered them with some nylon and glued one with some silicone. I'm wondering if the...

Hi, I'm really novice to any scaping and would like your feedback/ideas on this one: 43L, Aquatic Nature Cocoon 7, dry starting Many thanks for your suggestions

Hi, I'm going to setup a low tech nano shrimp only tank: 11gal tank with 2x11W PC light. It will mainly grow crypts/swords. I ordered some excel hoping to use it instead of CO2. I'm not used to liquid CO2 ferts at all. Will excel be enough CO2 on such a tank or no? If I plan not to do...

Hi, I'm nearly starting a new nano aquarium. I was about to get a Dennerle Nano Cube 30L, then, I saw those Aquatic Nature Cocoon aquariums http://www.aquatic-nature.be/2eng_cocoon.html It will be Flourite Black Sand based for shrimps only, and maybe later some microrasbora fish I ordered the...

Hi, This is my fisrt post here. I have a 60gal tank, 2x54W T5 (+3h 4x54W burst period that I could shut soon to reduce light). Dosing EI + pressurised CO2. I'm looking to remove all stem plants, except maybe a small group of only one kind for aestetics as a spot. I thought replacing all...
