I quit! I think all my hopes and dreams of having a beautiufl aquatic garden have gone down the tubes. The beautiful driftwood that I found and boiled is blooming with a while cottony algae or fungus or whatever you call it. In haste to plant some new plants one evening, I stirred up the substrate too much and now have a brown ugly coating on each plant. To top that off, yesterday evening I installed a new 2900k 15W fluoresent tube in the 10 gallon tank. The color was awesome however this morning----even tho the light fixture was off all night----a have a new bloom of green algae on all the plants. I quit. |
