bro I guess is the lineage(off spring colur will be more stable) and deepness of the red colour.

Is that mini fissidens growing on the driftwood?

Beautiful PRL by the way. The red is a crimson colored and quite stunning.

hi bro, over the pass few day, I have been trying out my tank TDS.

and notice that it has shot up to 230ppm (tap water in my area is 70pp, after adding anti chlorine reading is at 90ppm)

Last Sunday I did 4 x 20% water change over 8 hours to bring down the TDS reading to 160ppm.

but last night after work when I do a reading again, the TDS reading when back to 190PPM.

any idea why this is happening? I have not feed any food after the water change thus far.

Whats the gh?

[ahloy]

the last reading I had last night was 208. still on the increasing side!!

Any fert or mineral dosing? What about the pebbles? Any impact on water parameters?
