    P-90 set up success and plantocalypse

    that sucks! did the ADA inlet break during shipping? if your tank is stable and you sorted out the algae issue im sure things will grow back very fast. your next problem is trying to keep that Riccia fluitans under control ;)

    All The Gear, "No Idear"

    ian_m the squeeze handle is ONLY in place for easy operation while extinguishing a fire. they are designed to operate for a MAX 4-6 minutes burst, thereafter the cylinder will be depleted and the extinguisher would have done its job. IT IS NOT made to stay open for pro longed periods of time...

    All The Gear, "No Idear"

    you got all the kit for an awesome scape. no pressure :rolleyes: my one concern is your Co2 cylinder. those trigger handles are not designed to be kept closed. sooner or later it will fail. Best to swop it out for a tap/wheel valve.

    P-90 set up success and plantocalypse

    makes sense to me.:) what make is your needle valve? the fabco NV-55 or NV-55-18 are amazing. your scape is great. just needs the glosso,HG and marsilea to grow in a little more.

    Untitled II

    Very nice scape!:clap: i would not worry about the gap, once the stems fill in, the light won’t be able to push through. If it still seems to be a problem some fissidens or liver wort (pelia) ect would look good. i agree with the horizontal line. However if you increase the height of the...

    Lots of Dry Start Method questions!

    im not too familiar with the 1-2-grow products but we get anubias plants down here in SA and im sure it’s a similar tissue culture growing process. We find if you don’t clean as much of the agar gel off the plants especially the UG, once submerged it grow this horrible mould that ends up killing...
