I might swap out the Aquamaxx TS-3 (bad design tbh) for a GEO this weekend, if time permits. I use polyp lab genesis blocks for nitrate reduction. It takes done time before they are fully cultivated with bacteria and start to consume nitrogen, but once they do, then it’s easier to add a little back. Types of food will help control nitrate and phosphate too.

It’s kinda crazy, mostly because all spaths are “fat”, prostrata is typically “skinny” and millies are in between. But they’re all found next to each other, so I guess it makes sense? 🙄
