Arh, its plant food stuff.
I use Aqua Master Plant Food - but not as often as it suggest, maybe every couple of months give them a dose. But I do leave the light on that assist with plant growth (not sure what that light tube is called though - sorry)..
Plants require adequate light (high in the blue and red spectrum, intensity and duration) and nutrients (in which I include CO2, macro-nutrients and micro-nutrients) in order to photosynthesis (grow). These must be in balance for the plant. If there is an excess of any one beyond what the plant is capable of using […]
Hi Ray
I’m glad you are on the mend. I think mine has had a slight twist today I started sneezing. All week with I’ve only had a slight temp, coughing and headaches. Thankfully, it hasn’t travelled to my chest. However, starting today I’ve been sneezing with nasal congestion and […]
Hi Amber, Going with everything I read of Jo’s postings on the scenario of this whole situation, yes, I can only conclude with a good deal of certainty that here fish are dying as a result of this infection. This terrible disease was prevalent some 15 to 20 years ago, first eminating, then spreading […]
Gail, I think you would do best in combatting algae if you were to leave the Anacharis floating. While it will still grow some roots out along the stems to take up some water-borne nutrients if you were to plant it, the idea of using the plant for this purpose is to have it […]
Wow. It has been awhile since posting. Obviously that IS a good thing. I have not lost any fish in over 2 years; have survived many harsh Chicago winters, and everything is good.
Except now. Green water. Fish are thriving. Chemical levels are fine. Though, the pond does get alot of sunlight. So, I need advice […]
To answer Amber; so far I haven’t noticed any plants getting sucked up in my filtration or my power head. so far so good.
In response to Lenny: I leave my daylight lights on during work (approx 9 - 12 hrs) then, I switch to the blue or actinics for throughout the night (9 - 12 […]
As much as will fit in his eye Since his stomach is as big as his eye it doesn’t take much to feed a betta. I have to distract my betta from eating the food that I leave for the dwarf frog in my 10 gallon, LOL.

I figured as much on the dupes. No problem, that’s all part of why we first approve them before they’re filed in Photos. I thought I might change the caption on your male Angel to state just that (instead of your believing it’s a female. In this way, anyone looking at that […]
Certainly not wanting to steer you away from here, but I think I’ve told you before that Diane Walstad has her own “El-Natural” forum, or rather one that she moderates, all about Walstad tanks, where you might be able to get better info if we can’t come up with something that works. http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/el-natural/ Of […]
