. But I just wanted to give out a warning that many 'bow keepers have noticed that co2 seems to effect them more so than most other fish. Some of the bow gurus have noticed even with very high o2 content that co2 around 30ppm made the fish become overly lethargic compared to non-co2. but many still succesfully keep them, just wanted to throw in those two cents. I've had a couple co2 mishaps and the bows were of the first to pass in such instances (nearly all of them). Most of my loaches were fine (lost a couple). Although I would probably be able to keep them now, since I know better what I am doing, I decided to not keep them again after I lost nearly all of them for a second time. I have been seriously debating about them though.

If by auto you mean your using a pH controller thats great. But dont forget to clean and calibrate the probe often, and make sure your KH is stable, else auto can cause as many problems as manual. I'm hoping to make the switch to a controller on the tank I am setting up right now (my current tank just uses the same timer the lights are on to administer the co2 during daytime).
Looking forward to some pics when things get growing!
