Whatever works for you. You can then hook up a solenoid to the regulator so it turns off and on when the lights go on. The solenoid stops the flow of gasses(when put on a timer). Just really easy and you dont have to mess with it until your canister runs out.
Instead of yeast to produce co2 some fill a metal cylinder with co2 gas. Then they use a regulator to regulate how much co2 is dispersed into the tank.
5 gal co2 tanks are really easy if you have the money. For us lazy people i like the set it and forget it. I didnt know they last this long, as i filled it months ago august 2024 and still going strong. It was my first time doing co2 and i would say if you can spend a little extra money 150 $...
Ya the co2 fluctuation likely didnt help.
I know exactly what you mean it fuses itself to everything. In my experience its next to impossible to fully remove. Very annoying. Since your light doesnt dim it may be best to get some floating plants.
My fish got a strand stuck in his mouth while...
I have the same green hair algae as you as many of us do. Although yours is growing really fast to have already choked the new growth. It would be best if you removed as much algae by hand as you can. Then listen to ruuds advice ,well said. I keep my tank at 77°F so 25°C. I've heard people do...
Thanks for the update looks good. I had no idea veil tailed cherry barbs existed. Nice choice. Your floating plants seem to be doing well. Im pretty sure floating plants have access to co2 from the air column so thats another reason they grow so fast, plus first dibbs on the strongest light. I...
True. Just a way if doing it. Either way works. Yes it does need something to hold it together like a rock sticking out to catch it. I was confused because you said boil the leaf, i thought it was a necessary step. The lava rock method can save on expenses.
How long do you boil the leaves ?
A little tip with deeper substrate or just under any substrate is putting some crushed lava rock. Lava rock is very porous thus allows for better water flow and aeration of deep root structures. The porosity of the rock encourage beneficial bacteria growth and...
I rather like calico bristlenose. Or super red calico. Bristlenose arent too big for a 29 gallon imo. No bigger than a blue panague. You could try L519 or L448. L201. L046. L183 among many others. Type in pleco for sale on google and see what pops up. See what stores have in stock.
