Took these after school today

About 3 inches long and 5 inches tall. They are the best looking angel fish I've ever kept!

Chunky. Good form. Sweet fish.

Wow, nice Angels, but your plants seem to have a bit of an algea problem.

 

[Tropicalfishking]

yes, I know. I don't really think that it's algea though... but I don't know what. I reduced the amount of light. I am getting some plants on Friday, and setting up a DIY Co2 system on Saturday. So that should help to cut back.
The stuff comes off very easily with my fingers.

i would strongly suggest DIY yeast system just set one up personally, cost me about 5 dollars i already see a little bit quicker growth from my plants and i dont even have high light

 

[Tropicalfishking]

Yup thats exactly what I'm going to do, with a Co2 ladder.

even better i only have an airstone, but i have heard that the ladders are more effective, what exactly does a ladder do?

 

[Tropicalfishking]

From my under standing it allows more Co2 to desolve into the water, because it has more Co2 to Water surface area for longer... as it goes around, up the ladder. I think that is what it is. But it is not nearly as affective as presuised Co2, from my under standing.

I will be needing 4 2liter bottles for this set up.

 

[Tropicalfishking]

A lot of things have changed!
