    First days of aquascape with ADA Amazonia

    OK so if I do daily water changes on a low tech non CO2 tank will no this cause trouble to my plants? I would assume that because I am not adding CO2, the added water would be higher in CO2 contents and this "fluctuation" would cause problem to the plants and would make it difficult for them to...

    First days of aquascape with ADA Amazonia

    So this is the second day of the aquascape. Substrate is Amazonia. How do I go about in water changes and fertilization? I have macros and micros of EI and Tropica Plant Growth Specialised Fertilizer (I think it has both micros and macros). Thanks

    Azoo substrate too light

    Hello, I now have the Azoo substrate in my tank but I see that my plants are having a difficult time to anchor on this substrate because it is very light. It is a good substrate due to it being from clay but is there a way to make sure that the plant roots will have a good anchor? Maybe if I...

    ADA Aquasoil

    Hi, I am about to purchase some ADA New Amazonia Multi-Type. 1. Can I use this alone? 2. Will it deteriorate in shape and shatter to sand after a while in water? 3. Do I need to order the powder as well or is it just for aesthetic reasons? 4. How much will I need for a 60cm x 30 cm x 45 cm...

    What makes a substrate good for plants?

    Hello, sorry if this sounds stupid but I was thinking what makes a good substrate good? Apart from being NPK or nutrient rich, which again if you dose via water column it might be unecessary, what makes a substrate good for a heavily planted tank? e.g not being porous, getting packed after some...

    Cat litter

    1. I guess it would be better to use it uncapped instead of capping it with sand since if it comes on top of the sand then it will look bad? 2. This is considered as good substrate because it is porous and it will absorb any extra nutrients the plants will not use? 3. If yes, when does it...
