Noticed a major start of BBA tonight... come on ferts! also awaiting a CO2 reactor.

Thanks,

Ted
 
you do not want BBA!!!
Get that CO2 crankin..in the meantime dose excel x 3

Looking good Ted. When you get your CO2 hooked up you need more plant mass though. I have some eco for you ...check the other forum thread.
 
CO2 is hooked up, but no reactor.. Hopefully next week. Meantime it is just the rena micro bubbler below my spary bar.

Just for s#*@'s and giggles, see what shipping is from you to 17754 for eco per bag. Let me know $ for bag and $ for shipping.

I found Turface Pro locally, but not sure if I like the lighter color.

Thanks,

Ted
 
Thanks!

Pics 1 and 2 show the BBA starting back up (tips of amazon sword).
 
Ted I think it would run about 23 a bag shipped....it is close to black.
As for the bba on the swords, when you get this cranking with the reactor, prune the leaves with it on it, then squirt some excel on the plant with a syringe. That will help.
 
Lynn,

Thanks, I will let you know. I tried some things to get Soilmaster and will see what happens.

This BBA is growing fast. I may need to do a blackout prior to getting my reactor....

BBA can handle blackouts fine and dandy. Just spot treat the infected parts with Excel. I also find it's easier to keep tanks algae free with more plant mass.

Brilliant, yeah I kinda realized that later. And that little bit of argument is now a couple weeks old. But if you have to bring it up again...

I dont come here much. Fish come first. My fish just happen to be soft acidic. I think F_N summed it up pretty well.

The tank is going to look very good.I ended up positioning my jungle vals in the back. They spread like crazy and took over the back of the tank. ALso my dwarf sword gobbld up my entire foreground that one grows quickly. I would like to see it again in three months.

He is right Ted. Blackouts only quell BGA <a bacterium> not BBA. You need to load up a syringe with excel and squrit the hell out of the plants. Use 3x's dose for several days.
