Hi all,
I started my first planted tank back in August. Things are going well so far, but I am wondering if there are some easy improvements that I can make. Below is a complete description of my setup. Let me know what you think along with tips for seeing better growth. Thanks for looking!

- I dose ferts based on the Seachem Daily Dosing Chart on this site http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/showthread.php?t=45119
Maintenance: 50% WC weekly
