CO2 tank update

This pc is the most interesting progress that I've ever achieved, it started with actinic tanning and later on switched to CO2 treatment in low oxygen environment. The result is amazing. PH 5 TDS 120

Actinic and CO2 update

Actinic and CO2 update, progress is going well

Is Oxygen a criteria?

I did a thinking the other day and something struck my mind of the Marulioides habitat. Flower performing specimen most time thrive in still water, low Ph and blackwater. When I had failed specimen they are most time related to fast moving water, powerful pump, air pump, high PH, these if you look at it in another angle are somehow related to the ratio of oxygen vs carbon dioxide. Is Carbon Dioxide one of the factor for flowering of the marulioides?  Or is starving of oxygen the caused for producing flowers. Remember open water and Marulioides from rivers has less flowers? How are the lack of oxygen causing a flower bloom? So the only way we can find out is to do a set up to test out this theory. I've practically ran out of tank to do so many types of experiment, thank god I still have 14pcs of Terengganu to try out. I choose the many band var which is the most stubborn of all types. From my understanding this is the controversial spec that is causing all the fights. The many b
