Re: Seachem Flourish dosing frequency
Also, make sure you're shaking the bottle well before dosing. The nutrients can settle, and you might not be getting the full benefit.

Re: Seachem Flourish dosing frequency
Twice a week seems excessive unless you've got a ton of plants. I'd cut it back to once and see how they respond. Also, what's your water change schedule? Too many nutrients can mess with the balance.

Re: DIY water dechlorinator?

Re: Malawi cichlid feeding questions
Yo, don't sleep on the veggie side. Mine straight up ignore the protein if I don't mix it right. Gotta keep it varied or they'll pick at each other.

keeping kribs with rams?
I'm running a 110 gallon heavily planted setup, got a breeding pair of kribs in there with about 25 fry, plus some tetras and other fish. Thinking of adding a pair of Rams to the mix - will they get harassed by the other fish, or can they hold their own?

Re: is my stocking level full?
I've had my fair share of keeping multiple cichlids in one tank, and from my experience, these fish will only continue to grow in size. The waste they produce is substantial, so it's crucial to maintain a strict water change schedule. With proper care and regular monitoring, your current stock might ...
