When I grow up I wanna try my hand at a "Planted FW System". I've had some of those "Miracle Bulbs" in the past and they grew well for a couple of months but I've always wanted something that looks like a forest or something. I've seen a couple with dark accents and they used white sand down the middle and it looks like a water fall.. under freaking WATER!! Can you make one of those for me Paul?

It's ALL gotta go!!* Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change. Allen's home-made formula...currentNO3-((%WC.01)currentNO3)=finalNO3 (thanks Luukosian) This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%.
