June 2005 - Battling some serious algae problems. Just added Pressurized CO2 system with Hagen diffuser.

Added Ammonia chips to try bring buffering capability down to bring down PH.

 

Dec 2005 - This is the "Dutch Style" effect I got after not trimming any of the plants since June. I did not trim the plants in

order to let them get the advantage over the Algae. It seems to have worked as the Green spot, Staghorn and green brush

algae has all but disappeared.
