Mollies and platies nip plants sometimes.. get them out of there. Please dose regular nutrients, not only Iron. Tank looks really healthy.

Cheers,

Hi, are you still using the strip LEDs or did you replace with different type?

So many 10W LEDs? Doesn't it get heated, are you using any cooling fans on it?
