Looks like I might have a problem with low or no nitrogen in my planted tank
(CO2 injected); currently tested Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrare as 0 (Aquarium Pharm test kit), some of the plants that take N from the water column such as Limnophilia Aquatica is suffering (lower leaves are browning off), even the Anubias are starting to look yellow in the older leaves. The fish load in my 280L is still low at the moment, as I'm basing carrying capacity based on expected fish sizes (currently 5 SAEs, 13 Ottos, 18 Cardinals, 12 Rummy noses and 6 Congos). Besides feeding them more (and also getting more phosphates and possible getting algae), any suggestions, as N appears to be the limiting factor here? Does anyone know of a source of Potassium Nitrate in Sydney? Cheers, Poe |
