  • Dosing: 15 ppm NO3, 1.8 ppm PO4, 1 tsp Equilibrium, 1.25 tsp MgSO4, 3 tsp CaCl2, 50 mL Excel
  • NO3:PO4 Cumulative Dosing Ratio: 15:1.8 = 8.3

Notes:
65-70% water change:
25 mL Amquel+
3.5 tsp baking soda
50 mL Excel
1 tsp Equilibrium
1.25 tsp MgSO4

Someone ate all the angelfish eggs last night.

Added the CaCl2 after lights out. Last week, mixing in some of the CaSO4 with the CaCl2 didn't seem to make much of a difference in plant growth. A shrimp sighted today (almost sucking it up while siphoning out the water).

I traded in the two Kleiner Bar sword plantlets and some stargrass prunings for some Ludwigia palustris at an LFS. I was confused and thought that I was getting some Ludwigia peruensis, I'm not very good at remembering names... The leaves on the palustris look narrower than what I've seen in pictures on the Internet.
