is the lighting good enough for HC growth?

I think 24W is ok....but 4 bps for a 1.5ft tank seems too much...just my 2cents

Your tank was setup 2 weeks ago and you already have 40 tetra? Is the tank fully cycled or maybe you used a filter with existing cycled bio media?

Anyway, a 1.5x1.5x1.5 might not qualify as a nano tank... 24W might be a tad too little for good growth. Aim for higher than 3wpg.

not necessary, bps does not directly related to CO2 ppm concentration in the tank. 4 bps with air stone probably wont get you anything close to 20ppm. CO2 is depending closely to how you inject it into the tank.

I'm not sure what is included in Dennerle complete set. Thus can't comment on it. Just make sure you have Macro (N, P, K) and Micro (Trace) fertilizer

[edmund77]

you can try Wonder-Gro Pro Macro+ and Micro+ or if you want something more complecated, you can try Seachem N, P, K, trace and iron :P

Usually, you can read the chemical composition on the bottle

[edmund77]

bro which lfs can i get wonder-gro pro macro+ and micro+ and seachem N,P,K,trace and iron?

[gcce]

Most LFS carries seachem range. I get mine from C328. Checkout seachem website for composition listing of each pdt.
For wonder-gro, think you can try NA. Give Chan a call to check stock.
