    you need to be perceptive of the help you're getting. ;) do yourself a favor and read through this thread a few times for cohesiveness, understanding and observance reasons.

    What should i dose for these tanks?

    look that bulb up on line... get the specs on the color there. there's obviously a misprint on the package. 1k isn't even possible... that would be black, which is the opposite of any light at all.

    What should i dose for these tanks?

    put it in a shallow tank and let it reach the surface to make use of atmospheric (unlimited) co2. when you have an abundance of it, distribute the extras where you really want it. that 55 is going to be your toughest tank on plants for several reasons including, but not limited to surface area...

    What should i dose for these tanks?

    without co2, that's pretty much irrelevant. your stock levels were going to help me base how you dosed no3 until i found out your mix was already mixed. for clarification... not because of any fear of over dosing... just so you didn't waste it when you probably don't need the extra.

    step 1... step 2... step 3... step 4... step 5... step 6... every week... maybe twice or more weekly for a while. and again after scraping, scrubbing or cleaning anything to minimize cross contamination. address your lighting. is it too bright? are the hours way too long or...

    What should i dose for these tanks?

    then multiply... with a calculator if you have to... if you have a computer, you have a calculator. 3 drops to every 10 gallons relates how to 29 gallons? round it up to 30 gallons if you have to. round your 55 up to 60 or down to 50. whatever makes you comfortable. keep in mind you could dump...

    One more time before I order everything, please confirm

    i did the pre-mix once. after a couple weeks, caught one of my kids taking the micro mix out of the fridge to drink. they promptly went down the drain and i rid myself of that headache permanently.

    Dachshunds

    i don't know if you're getting at something or just conversing. either way, i assure you that little dachshund was not a threat to anything vice a rogue mouse or mole. just that in the case of the unruly doberman, the dachshund had no choice but to stand up for itself and establish dominance...

    Dachshunds

    i must say, considering the sources, i have no doubts this information is very accurate. however, i'm taken back quite a bit by it all. i've lived with several dachshunds and every single one was every bit as sweet as pie. maybe a little high strung (not nippy, but energetic), but tossing a...

    What should i dose for these tanks?

    my fault. i was not aware the macro/micro came pre-mixed. still, the same dosing should work out... on your 10 gals... dose 1/4 tsp of your mix once weekly... 3 drops of fleet 3X's weekly on your 29... 1/4tsp of your mix and a squirt of fleet 3X's weekly on your 55... 1/2tsp and a squirt 3X's...
