Can you provide us your water parameters and your substrate if you don't mind? Thanks

Hey 4f1hmi; if you look at his website he is using Flourish products, which lead me to believe that he has also a Flourish substrate; my guess is that he is using Flourite Red, but i am not sure.

By looking at the nutrients he doses in his 37 gallon tank i derived the PPMs he adds daily by using Seachem's website:
Flourish Trace: 5ml/daily
Flourish Excel: 20ml/daily
Flourish Phosphate: 25ml/daily (adds 0.84ppm PO4)
Flourish Potassium: 20ml/daily (adds 6.49ppm SO4)
Flourish Nitrate: 10ml/daily (adds 1.08ppm NO3)
Flourish Iron: 15ml/daily (adds 0.22ppm FE2)

Thank you for the link Gilles! Yes, I think he is using ADA soil.

HI, can you please answer my WTB private message? these plants are very rare in the Netherlands.

THe Eriocaulon Setaceum you have is just awesome!
Just wondering; Do you grow any of the Tonina SP. 'Belem' in your tank?

I hope to catch your next offering - I've been looking all over to get Eriocaulon, though I heard its hard to grow.

I just posted a new offering in this thread. Tonina and Syngonanthus lovers will rejoice at a handful of new vars offered.
