right away seemed important.  I didn't add any for a few days and already
noticed deficiencies forming.  After adding the ferts, the tank was looking
healthy again.<<

I just put up a couple of pictures of my Azoo tank at:

(and no, this isn't a finished (or even started) site in any way... this
tank is the only thing you'll find ;-)

I haven't had any problems with ferts, but then, the water I set it up with
came from one of my bigger tanks, and that's the water I used when I did a
water change too.  Everything is bright green and growing as well as you'd
ever want it to in such a small tank. (the lighter color in the newer
picture is due to the use of  a flash, the leaves are not pale... I just
didn't spend time messing around with the lighting)

These tanks are available from TFP for less than $30, and I think the"candy"
name is perfect for them.  They could easily be adictive!<g>
