krellious Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 get seachem prime as your water conditioner. Go to supermarket buy some bicarb soda and epsom salt change 305 of water on a weekly basis. add 1 teaspoon of epsom and bicars per 10 litres of water changed... effects the ph, gh and kh... (makes fish happy) dont use the algae control or dont buy anymore... not needed. just scrub the tank when you clean it... or buy some larger bristle. They will clean it over ngiht if there is algae. The stocklist seems fine. but more importantly is what filter/ filters are you running. The better the filter at turning over water the more fish you can technically have (but you need more frequent water changes...
