Ceg, thanks for the information.
One thing i've noticed is that stability and that the tanks vitality in general is an all important condition to getting the a display tank full of colour and happy healthy inhabitants.
I'll leave the lights for now, I want to get the tank stable and then i'll increase intensity slowly to hopefully improve colours.
Dosing and maintenance regime right now :
- Profido Easy Carbo (liquid carbon) - 1.5ml per day
- Profido Ferrol (iron supplement) - 1ml per day
- TNC complete fertiliser - 2.5ml per day
- Water changes 50l 2/3 times per week using seachem Prime.
I'll be adding Seachem 'Purigen' in the filter after it's been soaked.
Some photos of the tank right now, noticed a lack of colour but also less algae growth on the glass, plants, substrate, less in general :
