AQUARIUM CO2 AND AQUATIC PLANT FERTILIZING GUIDE + WATER PARAMETERS
This a beginner’s tutorial, that will help you with three important subjects. The first and biggest subject is aquarium CO2. Carbon-dioxide is much needed by …
I purchased from you Green Aqua CO2 reagent 10 ml. how many drops should I put in the
Green Aqua Glass CO2 Drop Checker?
? From Where do the plants in the river get their CO2? I don’t see any co2 tanks around any rivers., sorry for the unexperince question. ☺️
which regulator and solenoid valve is this?
Awesome video,between George Farmer and Green Aqua (who Aquarium Gardens recommended to me) I have picked up so much the last few days so thanks for that guys. Now to the stupid question part of my post !, I see on specs for plants likes this Ph or that ph,then for the livestock it's this Ph or that Ph which can be different,so assuming fish and plants prefare different ph levels is there a sort of mid ground that will be good for both and if not which is more resilient to their non optimum Ph and the value I should aim for?,if that makes sense. Also Balazs if the CO2 reduces the Ph how do I/we get it back up?.
Many thanks for the vids and guides they are awesome,also may be in Budapest in June so will defiantly be stopping by. Liked and subbed guys.
Great info. Just to clarify you have to keep 30 ppm of nitrates at all time? Should I add additional phosphate &iron to my Trópica specialized fertilizer?
Its super complicated and expensive. Ill just stick to lo tech tank lol
Must be nice to have all those products and tools at your fingertips 😁
Best aqua videos ever!
I still am confused.i wanna get fertilizer but there is so much variety.pls I'm a beginner.i like my life simple.and I'm not so high tech.pls can someone tell me if seachem is just enough? I also brought osmocote to put in the soil but i haven't receive it yet..soon.anyone?
Is it a big problem when my new RO produce water that has 39ppm? Tha tap water at my home is about 380ppm. Cheers
You say that you only really check water parameters using a TDS meter to keep it around 120? Surely adding liquid ferts to the water will increase TDS reading, you are literally adding dissolved solids to the water.
How do you manage to maintain nitrate and phosphate levels if you don't make measurements? It would be very interesting a video about this. Thank you very much
Guys, great as always. I have one question. In my 30l tank I am dosing CO2 2 hours before the light and stop when the light stop(app. 7hours). My pH fluctuate from 7,6 before light on and 6,6 after light off. Water surface is still, no aristone used. Is this normal? Thx Guys for your great work !
Ballaz can you reveal a secret about how to make plant a redish? With how to low no3 And more iron and etc 😁
Thank you for your very educational video. One question: I just started an aquarium where 80% of my plants are of low requirements only fertilized with potassium and Co2. Then I added the other 20% are Staurogyne repens, Hemianthus callitrichoides, Riccardia chamedryfolia. Now with these new plants, I must add N, P, K, Iron and micronutrients? How should I calculate this? I appreciate your help in advance
Sir, i don't understand english so much. So which is better for planted tank water, the soft, medium or hard sir? Thanks.
I know this is not a recent video but I hope you will see my comment. I recently added a solenoid to my co2 system. I got a pressure tolerant hose between the needle valve and the solenoide but I notice that when the solenoid is off overnight, the hose inflates 2 times the thickness. Is that normal?
Thanks, good solid information and as always, great video. BTW "Eye glasses" – https://youtu.be/5wSw3IWRJa0 – Timeline 1:00 and yes I'm British so this amuses me 🙂
Is 120ppm the sweet spot after 50% RO water change and the nutrients and GH are added? Keep up the quality videos!
Feeling more than welcomed to this beautiful world of aquascaping thanks to your shared experiences in these excellent and fun videos!
If I ever find myself in Europe, visiting Green Aqua will be a priority!
Hi In my aquarium daytime ph 6.6 night 7.1 problem ?
Is the CO2 Reactor an overkill for 60L tanks or smaller than that? Will the difusser work just fine for that size? What about the difusser on large tanks (120L) will not work? Thanks Green Aqua, excellent content!
Cheers from Sweden
Very informative 🙏 keep it coming
If you mineralize your water to GH3, magnesium is pretty low, so how much potassium do you keep? or maybe you add some more magnesium in your fertilizers?
I am afriad to use co2 in the close room of in the living room because i heard that there is a chance that co2 will Explored. Is there any case of that ever? Will it explore like a big bom or will it not damage my aquarium or home?
Appreciate this video. Thanks
What would be better between external reactor and inline atomizer?
I have planted many tanks but never used a CO2 tank. How do you all refill them or do you?
Is TDS 120 equals gh 3? I thought you have to divided 120 by 17,8 and it’s around gh 6,74. Or I’m wrong 🙂
I have a 180 gallon tank not using any co2 products I like to have live plants without all the algae and have it actually grow , Amazon leaves grow ok in my tank but still get algae basically could I use the liquid product you showed or I need actual gas ?
Hello green aqua…. I'm from Indonesia, weather in indonesia very hot…30°-32° C, are u have cheap solution about that?? Sorry my English not good, but I try hard for ask to u…. I hope your answer 😁
I was thinking about getting into this hobby , but there is so much maintenance and supplies needed. The list is end less. Co2 tanks, wow. I have much to learn before I venture into this hobby. Love the videos.
i use miracle grow, zero issues.
Do all-in-one fertilizers, like NilocG or Easy Green, work or should I get separate fertilizers for micro and macro nutrients?
Can your micro and macro ferts be dosed on a weekly basis not daily? If yes, how should the dosage be calculated?
I cannot, in good conscience, run a co2 canister.
