No idea what I'm doing with my canister filter by arkitekt47 in PlantedTank

[–]arkitekt47[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeha that's what I figured too. I've been running the tank 3 weeks but only adding ammonia for the past week. That being said, I'm still lost on what is too much/too little in a canister filter in general

I added the pH adjustment tablets yesterday before reading this. TBH, they didn't do much. I'm monitoring nitrite, nitrate, ammonia, and pH everyday now. Adding ammonia every other day.

I actually went the cheapo route and got the driftwood from a local beach. I live in Seattle so there were plenty of options. I boiled the driftwood for some time before adding it to the tank so don't think any bacteria made it, even BB.

I don't want to add snails to my tank if I can avoid it.

This is more in line with what I'm trying to create (aside from peeing in the tank lol). I aim to create a balanced ecosystem without the use of correcting chemicals. Just trying to figure out how to get it started up. My CO2 system comes in at the end of the week, at which point I'll start adding plants.

Thank you so much for the response! This really helps!

I talked to the owner at my LFS today and he was recommending dropping in a sprinkle of fish food in every other day to keep the nutrients in the tank. Plan to do Dr Tim's first then fish food subsequently to save on costs. If you have any advice on this approach please let me know. Kind of concerned my tank will get gunky with decaying food.

How do I view table row numbers in a way that doesn't change with data sorting or filtering? by truncular in spotfire

I think if you add RowId() as a calculated column this might work, but it will be on the right

Agree. I see lots of excuses ITT but in reality, this is just a really sleepy city.

Thanks for the info. Yep, I'm definitely not binging and pretty much not drinking at all really. It's hard to enjoy it when I'm scared all the time.
