John, I've tried a few times to access your website from your link in the our signature with no success ('page cannot be displayed'). Am I doing something wrong?

No, it should work ok. At least it does for me.

You could try this, if you have Windows.

Open a command window. To do this on Windows XP, go to Start->Run
Type cmd in the text box and click OK.
It should open a command window.
In the window, type PING www.truescotland.com

If successful you will get a reply otherwise it will tell you it can't find the host. For whatever reason your ISP might be blocking my IP address.

HTH. I'm not the greatest at explaining some things.

If I've read posts correctly you can use Excel/Excel plus with anacharis if you use half the recommended dosage.

As for the lighting stop by Lowes or wlamart or home depot. Pick up a 4' shop light and a couple bulbs adn shuld be able to get at least 80 watts of lighting for under 30 dollars. For the bulbs I would get a daylight bulb and a sunlight bulb they tend to mix well and balance out. I just bought 3 4' fixtures with 240 watts(for my 75g) of sunlight and daylight bulbs at lowes for only $70 and that includes the wood i bought to make the frame and canopy for them.

I wasn't aware of that. That could explain why anacharis wouldn't grow in my tank.
