QUOTE(z8net @ Nov 22 2011, 07:50 PM) Use valve no possibility it will burst? 1 more thing i believe u r not using normal mineral/drinking water bottle rite? Bcos i dont think that kind of bottle can sustain hot water... most of the DIY are using water bottle, i dun think u pour in hot boiling water pls note that if the pressure is not high enough, u can't diffuse ur DIY co2 thru any glass diffuser, atomizer no need to say d happy DIY |

I put a handful of Coral chips to buffer with pH. hmmm.. 6.2-6.8, some ok with ph 7.0Now my pH is around 6.5 when CO2 is running. Gonna take out some of the coral chips this weekend and see what it's gonna be like. CRS like 6.2 to 6.8 right ciohbu? i would say GH is more important u say ur ph is 6.5 when running co2 ? however bout night time when its off ? ph will increase when u off co2, and plus u have coral chips Added on November 24, 2011, 10:16 am QUOTE(surfsmurf @ Nov 24 2011, 08:59 AM) can somebody ID the plant A,B n C in my tank ? hmmm.. i not sure how lava rock gonna bring up ur PH, usually ppl use lava rock bcoz of they have a lot of surface area and perfect for beneficial bac to survivehttp://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/845/plantid.jpg/ my 10l tank. put some lava rock into the filter and replace the foreground rock with lava rock.

yo ... how everyone doing ? so quiet here recently
![]() pennywort is ok for shrimp coz they like to grow with root out of the soil, but personally think that its a grow play ground for shrimplets, some ppl just let them float on top with good condition, can grow quite fast... This post has been edited by ciohbu: Dec 1 2011, 04:46 PM |
