Bro Hueur, I noticed that you are using rain bar...I'm not sure if the external diffuser able to break the CO2 up and distribute them to the end of the rain bar.....

No problem. i am getting my desired pH reading already.
HC are pearling. hope they start to grow. will monitor further.

Some updates after about 6 weeks of Plantation.

Bought a driftwood trying to do up a "tree".
Didn't do a good job but find it self-fulfilling.




Quite a stubborn wood...soak in hotwater for 2 days and still refusing to sink....got to ask my Snoppy for help.

The centre part of my tank. The moss was tied too apart thus alot of empty spaces.



The long thing is like growing quite long...wondering if I should trim it shorter.
