Nice tank and successful experience Some notes to be considered though. 1- keep watching the tds also, especially that you do tap off, the evaporated water will reduce the water but not minerals, that leads to increase in tds, which is not good for shrimps and plants, sometimes it's better to tap off with RO water. 2 keep an eye on ph, as its going up it affects the plats, stunted growth, then melting.

Thanks for the tips!

I tried planting monte carlo no co2 on dirted loam soil and sand set up. 70% of them melted the other 30% still thriving. They're on 22 days in my tank. I hope they grow.

I hope you succeed. in the beginning you need a lot of plants

Been following for some time. May i ask what type of heater you use. Do you circulate the water with a pump? Thanks

[@walstadmethodstepbystep]

I explained in a previous episode that normally I would not use the water pump, but this aquarium is large and water circulation is needed. The links are from the video description Water Pump : kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnacpZt6npibm5o Heater : kzbin.info/www/bejne/poKon5mYjreAjbs
