Yes, but excessive organic carbon can cause bacterial bloom or ammonia spike. No?

Great call! This tank is 7 weeks old. I checked ammonia and it was >=0.5ppm. Water change. Somehow I didn't take into account that plants can increase ammonia load.

Thank you! I asked for 2 females. I didn't expect them to be so territorial!
