I know its a very hard thing to have a planted monster tank. I seem to have a good start with it tho !
WHY DO I WANT PLANTS? I love the look of nature, the unhealthiest live plants looks 100x better then the best fake plant. Also The fact that it helps with your levels and your water ! Helping with the water is also a huge bonus for us ! less W/C ! We all know water bills can stack up in this hobby so im willing to try anything to keep them down ! lol...
I have one small peice of wood with java fern rooted all on it, and it is doing very well... Water is crystal clear, my lighting is going to be changed up a bit but hey its still nice.
I was thinking what other plants take in the nutrients through their leaves? Or will a plant like amazon sword that takes nutrients through its roots do well ? Maybe help keep the gravel a little more clean ?
Here is a shot of my tank
