"Balance" 65 Gallon Dutch Aquascape, ((( Plants Are In!!! )))

Btw the algae is in the water, the glass is Spotless.

 

@Lovebug I may actually look into that.... Yep I will.

 

@Lovebug im looking at lowes, cant find a trashcan on wheels?

Just bought this, @Jason @Lovebug @everyoneelse wish me luck, again!

 

The total was 60$ I got it for 25$ shipped because I had so many rewards dollars in my Petco acc I just forget about lol!

 

yea I never clean the gold mine!
Ceramic insert? im drawing more blanks.. remember your speaking to a complete co2 dummy.
Cycled, yes, always cycle my tanks before adding the main fish.
Working on it
The 70 fish are all 1/2" or 1" in length. Nano fish! Krigs (cant remember how to spell his name..) and others on TPT said that its ok as long as they are under 2", bioload should still be very small!
But I only plan to add that many. Total fish stock without deaths should be 90, and this includes clean up crew, inverts, every biotic factor. Once the fish arrive, I will test the water weekly if not ever half a week, I imagine ill have a spike in ammonia or something simply because I added them all at once, but I figure a week or 2 later after the addition of the fish ammonia will be 0ppm. Now if this Does Not Happen, and ammonia is a persistent spike, or nitrite, ill remove 5 or 10 of the main schooling fish, and add them to other tanks (I have more tanks that aren't documented) which I don't think is a problem. They are all nano's & nano fish.

Thanks mike for addressing this issue, have you any idea how to clean the hoses out? they do have algae in them, but nothing to clog it up yet. Should I clean them? its just brown algae it seems like.

 

How often do you clean out yours? (if you have one)
Or may I rephrase this, how often should I check it and clean it up?

 

Pre filter meaning filter floss or something @Mike k?
I have 4 layers of filter floss in my hydor, when I said cleaning I meant going through and changing the filter floss!
Sorry if that was drawing a blank to everyone lel
OH
or do you mean like something to stick on the intake of the filter?

 

Toads that's literally the best joke ive heard all day! good one!

what kind? the expensive as shit kind. LOL

Ok sassy ness aside, here is my stock list lol:

Pygmy Cory x7
Gold Neon Goby x5
Asian stone catfish x3 (1 died remember)
Pseudomugil Gertrudae x20
CPDS x20
10 Amano Shrimp
1 Male Dario Dario
4 Oto Catfish
8 Ember Tetra
Sorry my math earlier (der 90!!! hehe) was awful,
Total biotic stock: 78

 

Also the water is still green af, if not greener than it was before.
Light is raised exactly 1 foot from the tanks top rim.
Fertz aren't being dosed,
I have double filtration, more like triple
plants are looking ok though, its just these big clouds of algae! I mean you literally can see it, its like fog. Exactly like fog. And remember algae on the glass, not a problem the glass is spotless! (when looking from the side of the tank which allows you to view algae buildup on the glass, there is nothing). but its this fog like algae, you can see it rolling with the current. Truly peeves me off, I think plant mass is just the huge issue. To much excess nutrients, I guess Thrive Plus really does have a huge amount of nutrients in it! lol!

@Mike k how come on the intake? just asking. I don't get much gunk on the intake as the intake itself is pretty small, I mean like it has small slits. Leaves and stuff that get stuck to the intake I suck off every water change (every sunday).
Should I still do a filter sponge thing?
