Looking forward to the updates. Keep in mind you will need to use chelated iron at a pH of 7.6 so you'll probably see leaves turning yellow if you're not.

One observation though after I added 4 teaspoon of lime in the system, the leaves turned a little bit yellowish compared to absolute green before.


Hopefully this is from before and you're not doing this anymore :naughty:

Difficult to say why the plants turned yellow since with the high pH it may just have been a coincidence (since Iron is some forms isn't available at the high pH and makes leaves turn yellow).

Thanks Scotty! I will keep that in mind.

As of the moment we are drilling the tank and the growbeds and cleaning the pebbles. We barely have 4 hours a week in working with this project but still I will post updates! :)
