Title: Planted Tank Update


Cichlas - March 15, 2006 10:44 PM (GMT)
Thought I would do a quick update on my 30G planted tank. I started off using the nutrifin yeast CO2 reactor type CO2 injection but after 8 or 9 months of not being able to really tell if it was being of benefit I decided to go for a pressurised CO2 system. First pic was as of the 3rd Feb 2006 with yeast CO2. Other pics are from the day before yesterday. The growth in 5 weeks with the pressurised system, especially the swords and grasses, has been beyond what I was expecting.


3rd Feb 2006............

That's tight, I'd love to do something simular with some apistos.

Did you switch your lighting along the way?

Thanks for the comments.

Glaive, the lighting was changed a couple of weeks ago to T5 power compacts from standard T8 lighting.
