    forgot to say the water changes are slowly beating the bogwood browning of the water. I reckon a couple more weeks and I'll be crystal!

    A quick update for you. I've been dosing daily with liquid carbon for 6 days and have got my act together with ferts which I started 5 days ago. I trimmed the top off one of my clumps of eleocharis to encourage side growth as advised. I can see new growth on all the plants but not enough to...

    I think I will go for option 2 here and I will try and adjust the flow direction. I regard it as part of the fun of the tank to see if and how I can make it work. Thanks for the advice. Hope I can make it work too, after all I chose El Parv. cos I like it!

    thanks mark. There's no CO2 being used here so do you think all the hairgrass will brown and die off over time? I wanted to run this without CO2 as room is at a premium so have I chosen my plant unwisely and should it die off are there better choices. regards Mike

    Greetings to one and all! I'd like to share my little nano adventure with you all and hopefully get a lot of feedback and advice along the way. I've had planted tanks before but never with a great deal of success - plants always grew but the algae grew quicker - so after a few years break from...

    JBL proflora m603

    Hi, I'm about to upgrade from a 601 set and wasn't sure whether just to get the night time valve or go the whole hog and get a 603. I can't find out from my local retailer or the JBL website exactly how the 603 works, specifically does it turn of co2 at night (it appears not to have a night...
