Re: Growing my baby dwarf tears (hc)
How tall is your tank - I think the dimensions could be a bit of a challenge for Dwarf Baby Tears. High lighting is crucial for this plant, and it works best when it's pretty close to the light source. Since light diminishes quickly as it travels through water, it might be tough to get the desired ...

Re: long stocking options for 125 gallons
To be honest, I'm not really familiar with cichlids, so I won't be much help with your specific question. However, I do have some thoughts on what I'd personally love to keep in a 125-gallon tank. For me, it's all about creating a striking visual display. I think a school of Bala Sharks would be ...

Re: Addressing stunted growth in staurogyne repens
I'm glad you pointed that out about the phosphate levels, it makes total sense now. I mean, I did read the label on the bottle, I wouldn't just add something without knowing what's in it. API Leaf Zone doesn't give you the full picture, but I do know it's got potassium and iron in it - I'm actually ...

Re: Addressing stunted growth in staurogyne repens
I'm using a Marineland LED Light Strip - it's 234 lumens, 7800K. I don't think lighting is the issue here, though. I mean, I was originally using the TopFin lighting hood that came with the tank, and it was nowhere near as bright as this one, but the staurogyne was still doing great. So, I'm pretty ...

Addressing stunted growth in staurogyne repens
I've really grown fond of Staurogyne, it's become one of my go-to plants in the hobby. I love how it looks, it's been a fantastic foreground plant in my 15-gallon tank. Even before I started CO2 injection, it was doing amazingly well. It just kept growing like crazy. But then, a few months ago - I ...

Re: Are your fish acting strangely due to water quality or other environmental factors?
I'm starting to think my badis is always a little tipsy. 3:30 am conversations about life, making breakfast - it all makes sense now.
But seriously, I'm curious, is my little guy always under the influence? He's adorable and always curious, but sometimes his behavior is just suspicious.
