But due to the fact that discus dislike high flowrate, i can only make do with a single Fx5 now which barely flow though the tank fast enough... thus, most of my wood which is not covered with moss are now covered with BBA.. many of my plants are starting to get infested by that.. my co2 level is also not well distributed among the tank.. Thus, decided to let go discus and may try out altums instead.. kept angel fish in my 422 before and they are fine with the wavemaker inside.. |

Thanks bro, i doubt algae cleaners will be able to solve my problem.. better to find the root of the source instead. |

What a beautiful tank! I've always been an admirer of JIG's and this tank. I also have a 4x2x2. Thinking of selling all my livestock and OHF to start it up as a planted tank. But don't dare cos' i have absolutely no experience with plants and don't know where to start. So for now i watch.

Been reading the whole day! Prefer to read up as much as possible before asking questions. Current problem would definitely be the money. Chillers aren't cheap and neither are canisters. Will hang around and read up more. Dream tank boy, thanks!

Hey bro, don't give up this dream just because of money! it can be done with low budget as well.. well, im just 18 this year and likewise, i don't have so much cash to burn. the tank i got it for $50, filter was around $150.. lighting was around $50, soil $100+ and the rest are pretty cheap.. just have to source for 2nd hand stuff which most of my items are... i don't have that ability to get 1st hand if i were to go this big.. chillers are not needed for planted tank.. i use a single dymax small fan to chill my tank to 28C..
