Lets do maintenance for my Low-tech No Filter Simple Walstad Aquarium after a 10-days vacation ❤️☘️????????✂️
~
The floating plants have grown so much! I have dwarf water lettuces and red roots floaters.
~
Here’s what i do for the maintenance of this aquarium:
~
1) Remove all floating plants
2) Clean tank surface with melamine sponge
3) Trim the plants
4) 15% to 20% water change
5) Add 0.2ml of liquid fertiliser (Tropica Specialised Nutrition Liquid Fertiliser)
6) Add back partial floating plants (Ensure there space for light to pass through)

According to Diana Walstad, plants consume the available CO2 by around midday. Taking a siesta allows the CO2 levels to replenish, providing enough for the plants to use again in the afternoon.
