About

Calling the Jungle because it looks like one, the stone still looks lopsided no matter how many times I shuffle it round - left it anyway. White clouds and blue bolts get on with it fine.

Note

algae phase

Got some hair algae and green spot showing up on the glass and rocks - cut the photoperiod right down and did a blackout for a couple days. Plants look nearly full grown in now which is nice at least, just annoyed at the algae timing.

Note

lfs run

Picked up white clouds today, bag's floating up top acclimating now. Plants have filled in a fair bit since setup but still gaps in the carpet. Guy behind the counter tried to upsell me on a bigger heater, didn't need it.

Minnows look happy in there. Is that a full year of growth on the rotala or did you have to restart it at some point?

IIsabella KellyQuestion

Does that seiryu push your GH up at all, or are you cutting with RO to keep it in check

Tank owner replied

Not that I've noticed tbh - never tested GH properly, just water changes with prime and tap water, no RO. Seiryu's meant to do that but mine mustn't be leaching much

VValentina PhamQuestion

Tank looks fully settled in, how's the white cloud minnow group sized these days?

Tank owner replied

Still just the one group I started with, never topped them up - shoaling together nicely though, not shy at all now
