I'm using DIY fertz. 2 bottles of macro and micro. I'm using Estimative Index dosing method. It's so much cheaper in long run, I think with the amount I have, it will last for 2 years and the money I spent is less than rm100.

I was using this as a guide http://www.aquariumcalculators.com/aquariu...timative-index/

thank for the links..

btw..im wondering where to buy all those compound in small amount?..

It took me a while to find it as well. Go to lelong.com.my, there's a seller called Algaefarmer. He is selling it. You can do COD near sungai buloh.

Then you can buy those bottle from daiso, I bought 500ml.

Tips, you can put water into the bottle and press it once to find out how many ml per press, so next time when you start dosing it, you don't have to measure it. Just press the number of times.

ya...i did stumble on his page on lelong while browsing where can i find those compound in small amount..i'm in jb btw..if he's the only suppliers of those, then no choice but to deal with postage..

Unfortunately yes, I think he's the only one selling it in fish shop. You can try your luck in plant nursery shop, the link you sent over, I saw those are products from plant nursery shop (http://www.aquariumlife.com.au/showthread.php/2734-Dry-Fertilisers-Source-and-Recipe)

The most expensive one is the CMS+B Trace mix, it's just a little but it's about rm20, maybe last for a year? The rest can last for at least 2 years.

Anyone can recommend me where i can get good deal of these ADA sands to set up an aquatank? Thnx

Just leave it alone.
Reduce the feed.

Prolly new tank syndrome n you over feed the tank.

Dont put any med as it will only prolong the cycle.

Btw, angle fish is not tetra friend...

The whole plant is now covered with with slimey
Angle fish one is the only survivor with the other 4 tetra.. Else; RIP


Leave it alone?
Don't even have to to clean anything?

Details, I'm only aware minutes ago
While turning on the lighting

change 50% water, white algea you referring is actually fungus . did you put new driftwood into your aquarium lately ?

yeay... johorian.. which part of jb bro?

sand or soil?? where's ur location?

Nope.. Could be be due to sudden food waste i guess

Thanks for the response

I'd be more careful next time

Any tips to get rid the black spot on some plant?

Actually im a Kedahan, but now stay in Skudai bro..

still new and exploring things in this..

guys, am starting a new 45cm cube tank, iwagumi style with only UG as carpeting plant.
I am wonder how to dose CO2? How many bps? Need guidance on this.

lol...
me is 02 also, if you know what i mean.

i'm at pasir gudang. sadly, not much planted tank shop we have here in jb compare to KL

2bps should be enough. else if u start to see ur fish gasping for air, try to reduce it a bit

is it enuf for UG? I heard UG need quite high dosage of co2.
am goin for shrimp only tank.

shrimp tank + co2 is not a good combo bro.
thats y shrimp breeder only have moss in their tank. which is low tech, can survive without additional co2

just sharing my experience (but i tried without CO2), UG doesnt root nicely. needs a lot of patience.

Kinimaro....im at puchong but anywhere in kl should be fine. Im looking to start with soil but seems like sand is easier to take care and cheaper. Any suggestion between this 2 type?
