Do you ever wonder where you fall on the Evolutionary Chain of Aquatic Gardening ? Lord knows I do !
We banter, and bicker about peak levels of efficiency, but lacking a clear personal mission statemet how exactly do we apply these parameters effectively ?
What exactly "Does" The perfect planted tank look like ?
Anyone here ever meander through the produce section and stumble over some of those Blue Ribbon Hot House Tomatoes ? I mean the great big red juicy muthas that look like they are about to achieve a criticality, and splatter all over everyone at ground zero !
You march them right up to the register pay the clerk, drive them home, dig out your sharpest mater slicing knife, and settle into a gluttonuos vivisection ritual, lay them all out perfectly on a plate, or simply shove one in your mouth and...
BLlAAAaaaaaahhhhh ! Cardboard !!! WTH ???
Has anyone else ever achieved this level of efficiency in Aquatic Gardening ?
All them prize winning AGA display pics were just so captivating, soo Intoxicating...What the hell was I thinking ???
The best time to fret over the tank is "Before" you set to work. Ask yourself what you want, and where you're going ? Unless you just absolutely have to walk away with that 800 lb. County Fair 4H Pumpkin...Well ? Bench racing biological mechanics may not gratify you with any measureable substance. All the testing merely establishes the ceiling. Peak Parameters are vastly different than "Optimum Parameters" Exercise a bit of discretion, and common sense. Set some goals for you and your tank, and most importantly be patient. You can maintain the system, but no amount of harrasment, or coercion on your part is very likely to produce the results that you set out to achieve with them plants ! HAGLOM, Prof M
