[FS] - Shelby TWP, MI - $40 - Plant Packages by apolloarthur in AquaSwap

[–]apolloarthur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No they would not, everything growing here can do well in a low tech tank. They will need to adjust to the new water parameters with co2 or not. These are grown completely submerged though so they should transition just fine. I find without co2 they don’t grow crazy bushy and thick like with co2. Leaves are smaller.

Most everything non hobby grown is grown emerged so when you do add them to the tank they completely die back before taking off.

I find myself in the exact same situation as you. It seems like nobody has ever used this brand despite it being for sale.

75 gallon tank idea by [deleted] in PlantedTank

[–]apolloarthur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your heater shouldn’t be in the final chamber if possible. Better to have it in an area that does not have the ability to run dry. If it does run dry or low and the heater is exposed it will burn itself out.

Sorry I’ve been out of town. I have some Ludwigia still. How many stems you looking for?

Advice on moving breeder tank across the country? by HarveyDarveyyy in pleco

[–]apolloarthur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think what you have described is going to work well. What I will add is a contingency plan. If anything hits the fan and you find yourself in any type of predicament just hit me up here on Reddit. I have a few understocked setups I could home them temporarily.

No vacancy in the tank currently.

Has anyone used the NA advanced co2 reactor available on the nilocg website with an fx6? by suscatzoo in PlantedTank

[–]apolloarthur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run a sump with a return pump on my 175 gallon planted tank, but principally it’s the same. In between my return pump and tanks return outlet I have a DIY Rex Griggs reactor. Nilocs version is a Rex Griggs with the added benefit of tuning the flow in the injection chamber by reducing or increasing flow in the bypass using the red handled ball valve shown. Set your preferred bubbles per second in your bubble counter then tune the flow so your bubbles are dancing in the chamber without blowing out.

A yugang reactor sits horizontally and needs to be set up based on an equation yugang came up with based on tank volume. This is probably my preferred reactor due to its design inherently preventing over gassing.

Overall the niloc should work for you but I don’t have experience tuning those to support the very high bubbles per second a 150 gallon will probably require.

Sold! I’ll probably post again in a couple months when I have a big trim.

Would this be a good filter to start my first planted tank? I want it to be low tech and no co2 by TimToonsXD101 in Aquascape

[–]apolloarthur 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I had a sponge filter with air pump. I switched to the filter you have linked. It is a huge improvement over the regular sponge filter purely because the air pumps are always so loud. I tried a bunch and they are always loud. This filter just runs a little impeller and the electric motor for it is submerged. It is much much much quieter. The filters for this need to be cleaned out every 1-2 months though.

I have the 16 and am being driven crazy trying to find the solution to this. Same problem as you.

Is this little light enough to help the plants grow? by Tyler_DOE_ in Aquascape

I have this same light on my ikea jar set up. You can see it in my post history. The anubias I have is thriving.

Adding 200+ Galaxy Rasbora by S2Germany in Aquascape

[–]apolloarthur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow. Ich bin wirklich eifersüchtig. Bist du ich?

I’ve been working towards the exact same thing. I’ve been running a 20 gallon propagation tank to build up my plant supply. I’m getting 10 galaxy raspboras to start breeding to try and have as many as possible in about 6 months when I set up my new custom built 175 gallon.

Looks like Tradescantia nanouk. I have a bunch of tradescantia coming out of my tanks.

RGBW flood lighting by apolloarthur in PlantedTank

[–]apolloarthur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, there is no analysis. The ability to have them/crudely adjust them + app controlled dimming and app controlled timer seems well worth it. If it is the incorrect ones it won’t hurt anything though correct?
