  11. We are starting with Shrimp and snails. Its going to be a community tank with angels maybe 3-4 later as shrimp and snail get settled in. I want to slowly stock and watch and journal testing as tank progresses .. Thanks for the compliment also
  12. update on 75 planted ph 6.6 ammo 0 nitrite 0 nitrates 20ppm and falling. explosion of growth. Are the plant eating nitrogen cycle. Must be where all of its going. I have only fertilized 2 times and a few root tabs
  13. light cycle consistent 10 hours a day.. Its on a outlet timer, ..Nitrates are moving up to 40ppm however ammonia 0.5 and nitrite 1ppm. They has spiked few days ago. Still figuring out when to fertilize .
  14. Still cycling 2 weeks. Planted 1 week ago. I hope I did not over plant
  15. Thanks Brandy There are no fish in tank yet. I would prefer a fishless cycle and move to a natural balance in aquarium. I test water evey few days and journal it.. Notice a few brown spot hole on the "Windelov" java fern. I super glued them to a driftwood. Was reading and it might be potassium issues. May need to grab a bottle of Potassium at my local fish store. Seachem ok
  16. I received my plants and placed them in my aquarium on sat this week. The aquarium is going though its cycle.. ph 6.6 ammonia is 1 ppm and nitrite 2 ppm and nitrates are 20ppm.. When do i fertilize tank ,.also the tank has been cycling 2 weeks now do i need to water change 25 percent or just let tank cycle. Thanks everyone
  17. Hello All.. Just a beginner to planted aquariums. its 75 with fluval fx6 cannister filter. I am 2 weeks into the cycle process and would like to know if its ok to plant in the current phase of the cycle. Ammonia and Nitrite are present in tank and no nitrates. My goal is to start a planted community fish tank with Angels and good tank fish for them.. Any help is appreciated . Thanks
