Hi Folks,
My current setup is a 110 Gallon, 2 inch small gravel / sand mixed substrate - 4 Large Angels, 6 Discus - 5+ inches, 6 Cardinal , 5 Rummy nose, 6 Sterbai Cory, 2 Electric Blue Acara (Pair), 2 Amazon plants, 1 Anubia, and couple of Vals. Add tons of MTS and 3 Assasin snails to this. Couple of Drift woods, and flat slates
The tank has 2 Eheim Filters, 1 Sponge Filter.
The fishes are fine apart from the occasional aggression.
Water changes - 40% done day1, no wc, 40% on day 3 etc - with light vacuum
Typical water parameter before wc - 0 Ammonia, Nitrites, ~20 Nitrates.
Had to go out for a week - during which the tank was fed once a day only - usually I feed them 2 times on no wc days and 3 times on wc days.
Coming back the parameter was 0 - Ammonia, 0 -Nitrites and 60+ Nitrates.
Of course, this got me thinking of ways to reduce nitrates and I have setup a Uplift Algae scrubber with a 110 Rated tetra whisper and the roughed up plastic canvas. They have 2 small CFL pointing at it from the outside for the night.
Just set this up yesterday. Will keep the group updated on how it goes.
Will put up some pics later.
