Re: What's happening in your garden this spring?

For me it’s been a strange year with plants. I usually grow my own tomatoes, cucumbers and various flowers from seed, but this year found that although the seeds germinated, they mostly didn’t actually grow into plants. They stayed at the seedling stage. For the first time in many years I bought som...

Strength of water flow

I’ve changed my internal filter today, saving the media and putting it in the new one. The old one had no means of regulating the water flow and I think was a bit sluggish, the new one seems quite powerful and can be regulated. I have dwarf rainbows, glow light tetras, and platys, can anyone please ...
