how do you maintain a planted anubias tank with a high bio load?
will it be easy to maintain?

i have 15 pcs bristlenose in a 75 gallon tank.
and another 75 gallon tank full of anubias plants...


what do i need to maintain to keep both fish and plants healthy?
can i put the 15 pcs bristlenoise into my anubias tank..
they were together before but i separated them...
i'm planning to dispose of some of my tanks.
 
I've got a few Anubias barteri var. nana in my 65g, the tank has a very high bio-load and the plants are doing great - as a matter of fact, higher PO4 levels seem to be the key to keeping the leaves free of hard green spot algae. I'd just make sure to supply trace elements & K, Excel/CO2 if needed (depending on light levels) and do regular water changes, so the plants have everything they need in balance.
The only problem I've experienced with the Anubias in my 65g is my new gold nugget - he's scraped holes through some of the leaves while cleaning them. My bristlenose has also (gradually) eaten his way through some of the leaves on my Crypts and possibly the Anubias (never caught him in the act, so I'm not entirely sure), so my only concern with combining your plecs and Anubias would be the damage that might be caused to some of the leaves by 15 hungry baby BNs.
 
thanks :) hehehe they were in my anubias tank before... but i separated them to be able to concentrate on my anubais... but have to get rid of some tanks:(
