Thanks for the compliment... I am still desperately learning... that's why my tank looks haphazard... will figure out along the way I guess

[Jervis]

Planted yesterday... no sign of deterioration yet... that's good news Can I get an ID please?

Blyxa Japonica

Thanks bro Jacian for the ID... appreciated!

Lighting: Medium
Growth Rate: Medium
Difficulty: Medium

Someone reported the injection of CO2 to greatly improve its growth... well that's exactly what I did this morning

[Jervis]

The ADA Drop Checker is still indicating pH 6.8... with CRS inside the tank... will try to lower the pH real slowly... will stop the CO2 once I notice lighter green colour inside the checker

Besides keeping pets (perviously marine)... photography is my other passion... luckily I can merge the 2 passions together... in fact a fish tank is the best model/subject to practice photography

[Jervis]

Here's a temporary setup... recycled from my marine setup (previously used for Calcium Reactor)... the Dennerle Solenoid is hidden inside the cabinet

[Jervis]

After 3 hours of CO2 injection... pearling spotted on my HC!!! Extremely excited

[Jervis]

Bubbling on my Blyxa Japonica

[Jervis]

Is this plant really bubbling or just CO2 trapped underneath

Can I have an ID please?

[Jervis]

A bit exaggerated dun you think? Can help ID?

[Jervis]

Even the CRS was enjoying the CO2

[Jervis]

Last but not least... started dosing this

[Jervis]

Spotted a tiny snail roaming around my Blyza Japonica Should I remove it?

[Jervis]

It's so difficult to inject CO2 into such a small tank... the pH towards the end of lighting hours was 6.2-6.4... a drastic drop from this morning... I must reduce the time span
