So im runnig a 305 with pure bio media and an Fx5 mixed mechanical and bio load thats about 5 x water filtration considering filtration media reduction.
Water seems to be holding up well and I am doing 5 day water changes of about 30% water changes and im feeding them 2 to 3 x NLS 1mm cichlid forumla
THEY LOVE THAT STUFF!!!
My fish are growing for sure... My GF was gone for three weeks and when she came back she was like wow theyve grown.. harder to notice when you stare at them every day...
I do have some cyprichromis in there right now and they seem to minlge just fine no aggression to the cyps what so ever. I have one guy starting to show a bit of a band and its pretty wide which is cool.
I think what I will start doing is doing the watre changes in a bit larger increments.
my water tests are usually 0-0- ~10( not sure onthe sensitivity of the nitrate test)
