Actually I'm not that sure. It's always in the healthy range! I'll be buying test kits to verify! You can see my other thread.

I saw you are using ph tester on your tank.. How it works and where did you get it from?
I bought it from clementi auntie. $10 each. Just place inside the tank. I think it will be good to supplement with a test kit. The seachem one will provide continuous reading, while test kit will provide adhoc reading.

Bro, just noticed you are using clip-on LED light, is that sufficient for such heavy planting? Btw, what brand is it? I like the sleek look! What's the Wattage for each bulb? And if you don't mind, can pm me the shop location and price you bought it at? Thanks!

I wonder will the slope flatten over time when the soil loosen or breaks down. I had a similar slope without any support below the soil, over half a year all flattened. 2nd attempt i put sand below to keep the shape.

Hello bro...It is the LEO led light. 7.2W. You can get it in aquariums selling LEO products. I got mine from Serangoon north, about $70+ or 80+ can't recall. But it is really sleek. Makes my $28 tank looks like $100. LOL

Yes, without support it will almost certainly flatten. Even with support, things may shift over time cos of undercurrent.
