Hi everyone,
This is my first post on this forum but I have been in the hobby for a few years and I frequent a few other forums. Unfortunately I have been having an issue with my tank that has been ongoing for the last 6 months. Here are the basics, I started my 26 gallon aquarium in June, my star repens soon carpeted the bottom of the tank and I had more AR mini than I know what to do with. I did a trim in September and since my star repens continually melt and the AR mini just will not grow. Since I have worked on the CO2, Lighting and ferts. I bought a canister filter, increased CO2 substantially and dimmed my lights. The problems continued. There are many pictures and more details in other forums that I don't care to retype. I am getting ready to tear down the tank and clean the substrate (eco-complete) today. I will attach the relevant links to the existing discussion, thank you in advance for your help.
