    I'm running a TMC GroBeam 600 on around 60 litres of water, without a controller. Pressurised CO2 injection, liquid fertilisers and JBL Plant Soil. The tank is a couple of days old, but I'm aware I'm running the light at 100%, around 10 cm from the water surface. Plants include: HC 'Cuba'...

    Difference between TMC ADA SIGNATURE

    Evening chaps. I have finally come to the conclusion that my discus tank will never bee the planted paradise ive dreamed of due to the difficulty of balancing the needs of the fish with the needs of the plant. So I have decided to treat myself to a new optiwhite and a stand specifically for...

    Best Lighting for Fluval Ebi?

    I'm keeping "Medium" Level plants according to tropica.(It said medium on the side of the plant tub) I'm currently using stock lights,which aren't too bright-they don't reach the bottom very well and the spread isn't the best. What would you reccomend? Would a TMC Aquaray 400 tile be ok? I'd...
