    WiNd08: Thanks for comment my friend...

    fishpoo: Thanks fishpoo... I am using CO2 and fertilizer. Use as fertilizer potassium and iron. The name of this fish is Hyphessobrycon haraldschultzi. He is originally from Brazil here.

    Best cheers!

    JadeIceGreen: Thanks bro... I also liked that much wildlife

    Update:



    I'm a bit of algae in that tank. I think that Flourish tabs eventually rising to the water column.

    To resolve this problem by increasing the amount of CO ˛. This causes the metabolism of plants grow and makes them more quickly consume the ecxesso of nutrients in the water.
    Added floating plants and I fertilized with potassium. The plants need
    potassium to consume the nutrients from the water column.

    The exchanges of water are being made 50% every two days!

    I hope that on some days they go away!

    Cheers

    Thanks JadeIceGreen...

    I think it worked the way I tried to remove the algae. In a few days the tank reacted in a positive and algae left, leaving very few. To finish eliminates them I reduce the lighting and some days I think it will free them.



    Thanks to all

    Cheers!

    Hey Andre Gassi.
    Both tanks look splendid. I always wanted to keep a SW tank. But just the equipments scare me already lol.

    Re: RCrystal Place - Another lowtech - 60 liters

    not too sure if someone's already asked. But what settings did you use when you took those pictures for your rescape?

    I've got a H7 myself recently and would appreciate any tips.

    Just saw your tanks and I must say I too envy you!

    The photos are very nicely shot.

    Did you just shoot the pictures with hand, or did you put it on trippod? Just curious?

    Thanks!

    Excellent endeavor Andre, glad to see the tank's progression.
    Have you used Excel/Easy Carb instead of CO2?
    Makes algae issues go away pretty easily.
    Looked like an algae issue to begin with, particularly with that species of algae.

    Regards,
    Tom Barr
