If its fungus, then you'll want some type of antifungal medication to get rid of it. This might affect the plants though. When you remove it all, how fast does it return? Jungle brand makes an antifungal medication. You could try that.

Are you adding anything to the tank, like fertilzers or anything? Any fish yet? Are you adding any food?

No food,no shrimp(waiting for this to clear before ading 5$ each cherry's)and on fert at this time.I do have some coming though so I can get hc.I have some jungel anti sitting around so I can use that.After i cleaned it off I could see it again the next day and It covered them by the day after that.I have a small plastic nipple at the top of the co2 so the airline cant get to the mixture.Thank you and sorry for the post in row was freaking out.lol

Well Its seems to be gone as far as I can tell.I have a friend who has a small planted and bought hc and some other bunch plant.Well he has a reg light over it and no fert after the one thing of hc died and the one bunch plant is allmost done he asked if I wanted them as there to much work for him.what would I need for the hc to be happy as far as ferts and ect.

You'll want to dose potassium, nitrates, and a micro nutrient mix like regular Flourish. The Seachem line would be fine for a 3g and would last a while. You may have order them online though if your LFS don't carry them. You have DIY and good light so it has a good chance. Make sure you change out your DIY mix frequently (about every 3 weeks) so you have steady co2 production.

How much of the Aqua Soil- Amazonia (3 liters)- Normal Type would it take to fill a 15g.I was also wondering if I could mix it with some black sand.Does it help to grow plants?I know I seen that kristen used it in her betta tank.I was also wondering about how to plant a carpet of hc.At the lfs its in a bunch growing in some sort of material.Do you just pick the pieces out or.I belive I heard that there is a way of using craft mess to but not sure.

For a 15g you'd be fine with 9 liters. I had about 6 liters in a 10g. Just buy a 9L bag.

I wouldn't mix it. The Aquasoil is larger than sand and the sand would end up on the bottom. You could try to make a sand area in the tank if you wanted, but aquasoil will eventually make its way on the sand.

Aquasoil grows plants very well.

For HC, I would pick like 4 individual stems at a time from the material and plant it. Keep doing this (its time consuming, but worth it) in like a checkerboard pattern. It will fill in nicely! Tweezers come in handy.

I wouldn't use craft mesh.....HC roots in the substrate and is great in Aquasoil.
