The bulb is a T-8. The real trick here though is that the tank is in a room that faces east. It doesn't get direct light, but it gets a lot of natural light. For a while I had a wicked Hair Algae problem for a while when I neglected the tank and wasn't doing a lot of water changes. Bought a couple SAE's and started doing WC's every other week and adding Kent Fert and everything has gone nuts. The Amazon on the left is the parent of about half of my swords.:bowing: you are growing these beautiful plants under 1 bulb? what kind is it? :cool-1:
I think Dwarf Baby Tears is the name. Baby's Breath is that stuff that comes with roses.I tried the "baby breath?" awhile back. It died with good lighting/no C02. The others I like but don't know. Someone here will.
I love your attitude! That's probably why everything does so well in your tank. I just started a 30 gallon planted that is in a room that gets a lot of natural light. I have 2 T5 bulbs, 78 watts total with no CO2. I pray everytime I put the lights on that all my plants are okay. By the way your tank is a beauty. Good luck. Keep us posted on the new plants.I think Dwarf Baby Tears is the name. Baby's Breath is that stuff that comes with roses.
I've read that C02 isn't required but a plus. We'll see....I'm not going the C02 route so I will just see what lives and what doesn't. What doesn't I don't buy again....
