Re: how to Keep duckweed under control

Duckweed's a beast, man. I gave up and let it run wild in my betta tank. The little dude loves hiding under it, and it keeps nitrates low. Win win, I guess.

Re: Can you overdose beneficial bacteria?

Solid plan, dude. Also, grab some floating plants like Frogbit. They suck up nitrates like crazy. My tank's nitrates dropped big time after adding them, and the Betta loves the cover.

Re: Can you overdose beneficial bacteria?

Yo, I feel you on this. I used to dump way too much Stability in my 40 breeder, and it just made the water cloudy for days. Maybe cut back to once a month? My tank's got Corys and a bunch of plants, and they're chillin' now.

Re: do you prefer root tabs or liquid ferts?

You gotta do what works for your setup, mate. My buddy swears by tabs, but my liquid routine is dialed in. Swords are slow growers anyway, so don't expect miracles overnight. Patience is key.
