Sorry, forgot, I dose conservatively with Flourish, and no CO2.


I second Alex's advice to add some potassium. I had the slow/no growth
in my tank for a long time too. Adding CO2 didn't seem to help much,
and the only thing I was able to grow well was algae. I started adding
potassium on the advice of some of the experts here, and my plants
went nuts. Every 10-14 days now I cut out handfuls of new growth.




Thanks all for your input, I'm going to try adding potassium, as it's the
easiest and cheapest route right now. CO2 is just too expensive, and I've
tried DIY on this tank, it's just too big.
