wow..very nice.wot ferts do u use?apart from co2.

I make my own micros and macros now!
Dose with them every 3 days or so and do 50% WC once a week.

More or less use the EI method of dosing, but do so in a way that suits this tank.
Also, lots of JBL fertballs in the substrate, calcium right at the bottom, and I don't do gravel vacs.

That is a stunning tank mate....The condition of the fish is fantastic and also the plants! Well done.

Thanks! The tank is so easy to take care of. One water change a week and a small prune and I'm ready to go! 30 mins a week is all it costs me in time, and I love being able to watch it any time!
