Very nice scape

**chocolatelala** · 20th Feb 2013, 21:17

Wow. very nice tank. like underwater in amazon river

**shrimppaste** · 20th Feb 2013, 21:41

Tetrakid, like all people doing planted will tell you for all kinds of Alage, have healthy plants. And plant more. All kinds of Algae thrive on nutrients. If the healthy plants eat upp all the nutrients, the alage will not be able to survive. Hope that helps.

Hi Guys,

Thanks. I am in a dilemma if I should decomm this tank and do a purely hardscape tank cause I don't have the time to upkeep since I'm travelling quite often now.

Very nice scaping... why you want to decom ?... 1 year tank still need high maintenance ? Not self sustain ?

**shrimppaste** · 20th Feb 2013, 23:56

Actually it is self sustaining. But I keep asking myself do I need to add ferts etc? can I even start taking out my CO2?
