Welcome Craig, nice tank.

Thank you

The pictures don't do it justice really the plants are not yellow like you see

I've had a few issues recently with ammonia and ph swings hence the stock

Some 50% daily water changes should help your ammonia. I used to have trouble before I started a proper water change regime when first starting a tank, not sure how old your scape is?
