I need some advice to make my jardini healthy.

Here is a picture of my 7inches Jardini.




Now almost 10inches.
This is my 90 t0 100 planted tank.


I need help on what kind of moss I should plant to act as PH controller if any.

WOW bro, very nice fish... and of course... nice tank set up!

I need advise of which kind of grass to plant on the open space.
Right now I have some Dwarf Baby tears and Micro sword.
This is low tech setup no CO2 injector.
I have some Red Tiger Lotus but it got eaten by I don't know which
fish. I have 5Clown Loaches, 7 Chinese Algae Eater and 2 Angel Fish. I
don't know which ones are the culprit. But my question is will the left over
bulbs of the lotus, will they grow back?
Please reply.
Thank You in advance.

The Red Tiger Lotus should be able to grow back. My Red Tiger Lotus melted off totally when it failed to acclimatise to my new tank. However, it started to grow back when my water conditon stablise. In fact, they grew back realy fast and good and I had 3 new plantlets.

you may try e.tenellus or c. parva is worth considering. Low-tech fore-ground plants. Want something more low-tech? Go moss. But i have no idea if that little aro's gonna have bites on them. You may need Seachem Excel dosing for a good foreground since you're going low tech.

Thanks for the info. Do you have any idea which of my fish eats plants?

I will try what you suggested.
Thank You.

My view is not to keep clown loach with fish that may try to swallow them(now or in future). Their spikes make them very uncooperative with predators trying to swallow them.

You'll never know what's going through happy jarry's mind.

[fireblade]

my guess will be the loaches that distroy the lotus.. :>

[herosipet]

Thank you for all of your advices guys.
Any bright ideas on how to catch 5 loaches without stiring the whole tank? If possible I want to catch it patiently.
Thanks in advance.

[herosipet]

Thank you for all your advices guys. Now I have a new problem. Any expert or experienced Loach catcher out there? I need to catch 5 loaches in a 100 gallons tank. Any bright ideas? Please help.
Thank you in advance.

Make a fish trap and wait. Do a search using the phase 'How to catch'. Millions of post on this topic.

I think its the Chinese algae eater eating your plants. Clown loach don't eat plants.

[fireblade]

can wait till all lights are off, then use a torch light to search for the loach, then scoop them out.. thats how I scoop out my SAE :P

if you find holes in the lily, then should be the loaches..

[herosipet]

Thank You all guys. Thanks for the advices. Everything is taken into consideration. If any more ideas, please don't hesitate to post.
