Hello, congrats on the beautiful aquarium. I have a 180 liters aquarium I'd like to make blackwater, but my worry is that it'll be full of algae in a short period of time. How do you prevent this from happening?
I would use lots of floating plants like red root floaters or Amazon Frogbit. They suck up loads of nitrate and keep the light level in the tank low, preventing algae blooms.
Cheers from my Chicago Fish Room! Those are pretty sweet pieces of wood, especially considering you actually found them!
Thanks. Beach combing for cool driftwood pieces will get you some gems.
Well done . 🏆
Thank you
Nice, easy setup. This inspires me to pursue my blackwater project 💪
I’m glad I could inspire you
