I've red about oxygenating before, so I added some tubing during hardscaping. I will setup my air pump to do this.
Not sure. Plants looked greener on the first few days. But yes, no deficiency symptoms besides melting.
hope dies last, and i have a lot of hope
ok, but it seems I dont have to rip all out... they do it by themselves
Frankly, the water volume is max. 500 liters or less. Huge backround, huge elevation, huge rocks. It seems to me the flow is going everywhere, every plant moving. Lotus moves too much in the middle, as more and bigger leaves grow. Not sure I can keep it.
But I can increase my second pump from 1000 to 2000 l/h. Do you think UV is needed here? That't the reason I decreased pump2 to 1000 l/h.
Maybe this was a mistake from me, than. This is what I thought and did regarding water change. Lot of guys said that I don't need daily wc because of the big volume. Every other day is enough. So I decided that I'll do daily, but only 160 l (as my RO container is that big). What do you suggest now about water change (i'm on day 19)?
Yep... it's two reactors. It seems they function properly. Although not 100%, sometimes they spit some bubbles. I turn on CO2 2 hours before lights on, turn off 0,5 h before lights off. PH profile coming soon.
No livestock at the moment. I'll wait until the situation getting better.
In Hungary, most of the guys are obsessed with RO water... Can't tell you why. I have hard water gH 17.
Not mixing with tap.
What's your suggestion here? I would gladly leave out RO, if I could. Although I did a very convenient system. Everything is automated. Drain the water, fillng up, flushing the membranes. Only problem is I only have a 160 l container.
