Nice!

 

Hey Bro. Tank is looking good. Is it the pics or are those crypts quite brown?

 

They are even more brown in reality.

 

My water is mountain-stream clear right now.:cheesy:

 

Looking good @DewaldC , it is very clear that you are a big Star Wars fan
May the force be with you ...... and your tank.

 

lol i would put that whole rock in! owesome stuff !

 

Update:

 

Get a yoda and place him on top of the rock:tongue: but anyway nice tank

 

Update:

Everything in the tank is covered in brown algae.h:
The carpet has almost died completely:bawling:

 

What happened dude?

 

I really don't know.:weird:

 

The tank went to the dark side....

 

I will start fighting back with lots of water changes.
I have a sneaky suspicion the rocks to blame.:stupido2:

 

Probably, have you tried using the : "these are not the plants you are looking for" trick? or in any case boiled it?

 

I know the rock is hardening my water because its giving of mg and ca.
So if i do a lot of water changes it will counteract the rock,but in reality i should replace the rock with a different kind of rock.

 

Do waterchanges. What ferts and lights are you using again?

 

Seachem comprehensive 2.5ml per week.
Eveready 11w cool daylight 6500k.

 

Think tou need to dose NPK also.

 

I think you are right,read the bottles instructions again.
"For macro element (NPK) fertilization, use Flourish Nitrogen™, Flourish Phosphorus™ or Flourish Potassium™ as needed."

 

They also dont grow that leka without lots of co2, lights and ferts. But once you got that right tou cant stop them
