40 gallon breeder (about a year old) running off two sponge filters with a 100 gallon tetra whisper air pump
Currently stocked: 1 electric blue acara, 1 moonlight gourami, 1 pearl gourami, 3 bolovian rams, and 1 bristlenose pleco
Plants: Anubias, Anacharis, Water Wisteria
I dose thrive all in one aquarium fert once or twice a week and I use flourish root tabs for my wisteria
Lighting: hygger 36W full spectrum light which runs 10 hours a day
Food: I feed blood worms and brine shrimp a few times a week and hikari cichlid gold, bug bites sinking pellets, bug bites color enhancing flakes, and omega one veggie pellets daily. Can’t get my pleco to eat algae wafers to save my life.
Water parameters: I do a 25% water change every 7-10 days. Levels are always golden but often times my nitrates are pretty high even a few days after a water change (30-40ppm). I think I may be over feeding or not sucking enough poop out. Not sure
Let me know what you think!
