@allister, ok ra na ang garden soil as long as aged na. Im having some serious doubts about the clay available at "that ceramic store besides BTC"

what do you think? was the professional aquabotanist saying the truth or was he just trying to make a buck from new setup.

all those accumulated fish poo has to have an effect siguro noh??
While it is true that substrate nutrients can get depleted, it will not kill plants; they just slow their growth a bit or show some deficiencies here and there. Slow growth is simply unacceptable for show tanks and for seasoned aquascapers, thats why substrate augmentation/relacement is recommended. Mulm deposited on the gravel slowly becomes nutrients but plants take them up faster than they are replenished.

I have yet to see or read of an effective algaecide that does not contain copper. It is usually copper sulfate or some chelate of copper. We add copper sulfate to our swimming pools so that they dont turn slimy and green. hehehe.
Its not harmful to fish and plants but it is harmful to inverts. Some more so than others.

there's a lot UGF filter advocates at palhs ... but usually the forums based in the USA don't suggest using this.. but if it works for them. you might want to give it a shot.

or go DIY cannister filter. Google for some schematics.. I've seen some nice DIY cannister filter somewhere out in the net. just make sure you have the right GPH for your tank

Didto mi ni SHADE sa Pipers ganihang hapon. Received also the text message of SVMX while there. Nag storya mi ni madam piper about the planned show at sm or ayala. She really supported for that pero gusto niya mag-organize una ta. Unsa kaha ang prospective name sa grupo no? Basta ako nang gi endorse si Zerk as president. Ang muse seguro na nga si SVMX.

The more the merrier! Piper owns a petshop in Foodland, Banilad where that Flyover's being built. You should stop by that place sometime, they'll probably have what your looking for.
