水草情迷

I have just tested the following in my 20Lite SMALL Tank

魚缸水: pH 7.0, KH not much changed from水喉水
水喉水: pH ~7.5, KH 2-3
山水: pH very near to 7.0, KH 0-1

is 山水 good for 水草??? KH 0-1 is it mean its CO2 level is very low??

what if 水喉水 is mixed with 山水, it seems possible to have a pH near to 7.0 and KH 1-2... but is it still low CO2 level in such mixture??

I have checked the link:
http://www.csd.net/~cgadd/aqua/art_plant_co2chart.htm

it seem I can't never get to the 10-15 ppm CO2 level in such water pH and KH, any suggest how I can improve the CO2 level in my tank??

山水通常含有不知名細菌、病毒和寄生蟲。所以甚小人採用。

這點小弟亦相當同意~ 所以取水地點會特別住意~~

這次的山水樣本正是由山上一個水草蝦滿佈的原頭取來~
甚少藻類生長~~ 水流不斷，取回來的亦甚小微粒及沉積物。故有考慮採用~~

其實 對於 日光燈 這類 人工繁殖的魚種~~ 是否無菌環境 比自然生態環境 更加識合??

Is your tank CO2 injected?

大自然的菌種和寄生蟲都是比自來水的多很多倍，你還是小心嘗試吧！

明白!!

my tank is using CO2 DIY... but as my tank is really small, only 20lites, so my DIY only make a 3 or 4 bubbles per minutes.

since as before, I told my tank was overstocked, airbump also installed... so the CO2 level is more lowered.

airbump 有需要嗎？

因為小弟新手上路~~ 15"缸 加加埋埋 一百幾十條魚，草又未生得成~~

前兩個星期，吾開bump 朝朝起身都有死魚死蝦
開左就無事，成個星期死一條燈(九成九係條"石古"咬死)

哇！水又未養好，草又未生根，又OVERLOAD放魚放蝦，你想煲魚湯嗎！嘻！

已經收手吾加魚啦~~ 只怪我貪平 個$25 100條大燈~
會搵人要d大燈~ 而家養得好靚，快大，顏色又sharp~~ 非新買反黎包包魚可比美~~

可息而家好多都想晒，有d無左半條尾，有d爛鰭~~ 但肯定吾係有病~~ 我見住隻石古一啖啖咬落去~~心都痛埋~~

我一定會盡快減磅~

送比人囉！

The main corcern is we cannot reproduce a natural environment, its not possible for a closed system with such small amount of water anyway (even a 100" tank is consider tiny compare to nature). In nature, everything a plant need is in trace level, but being supplied continuously, even CO2. However, in our artificial environment, if we have some Macros in trace level, our plants will deplete those macros so rapidly that we would need to keep up with the supplement every hour or so; not to mention micros, if we duplicate micro levels as a river in our tank, these micro, especially iron would probably get oxdized in just a few mins by our HQI lights.

高手出招啦！Macbrush講得正確！
我們家裏永遠摸擬不到大自然啊！

啊~~~~~~~~ 恍然大悟~~

即係就算能夠使缸內水質達到與自然水相似的數值，亦無用~因為係人工化的"缸外"環境已經直接影響水質及穩定性~

明白明白...

如果你係住得好近水源, 可以搭條水喉, 不停咁引水入缸, 又不停咁將水流走, 我諗都可以將你o既構思完成o既.
