Light and CO2 are the most important things to start with. I see you are
adding CO2. Do you have enough light?

Thanks Jody....It's comforting to know that people have been successful

regula gravel.

1) Is there ONE supplement which I can use which includes most of what
the
plants needs?
Dave has already mentioned TMG (Tropica Master Grow) as a good source
for
trace elements. You will need a potassium supplement as well. I found
potassium chloride (KCl), or muriate of potash, at Home Depot.
2) Also, I am kind of mad at myself for not researching enough on the
gravel. From what I read I should have used Flourite. I'm thinking of
replacing the gravel with it it, or at least mixing some in.
Gravel will work fine for almost all plants. Smaller is better. I was
able
to get this using plain gravel (and fish mulm)
