Adding co2 and more plants to planted fish tank
Xref: 127.0.0.1 rec.aquaria.freshwater.plants:64816
Rather than continuing to add CO2 until you get perling, suggest you use the
calculator on the attached.

Lots of reasons why even with appropriate co2 you might not get perling.

Going to add the plants, a piece of driftwood, and co2 from my plants only
tank to my 46g Bow Front with 96 watts of lighting. This should make a
somewhat heavily planted tank. The 46g has 9 zebra Danios, 2 CAE's and a
4"
long Leopard Plec. Would like to know what to watch out for in adding the
Co2. As I seem to have had difficulty in the past in determining the Co2
content I am wanting to start slowly on the Co2 and increasing it slowly
and
checking the pH(normally at 7.6) till I get some pearling. Don't want to
get
a drastic change in anything that might harm the fish. Thanks for any
advise.
