Re: growth rate of fry and water changes



Title: Re: growth rate of fry and water changes
   Kelly, what is this resin?  where did you get it, can you tell me more?  I do weekly water changes but i'm still having a problem with stunted growth.  I don't really want to step up the water changes to 2 times a week yet.

I read in one of the standard American aquarium magazines that a build-up of nitrates stunts growth.  I think I may have confirmed this for myself after I started using a nitrate absorbing resin and weekly water changes.  My two Crenicara punctulata seemed to burst into an enourmous size in a matter of weeks.
