Hey, I'm just trying to get back into fish keeping after I took down my last fish tank due to renovations. Now that everything is done i want to set it up again, but want to go down a different path preferably a basic plant tank.
I have a 38 gallon tank, with a marineland emperor 280 filter.
I'm just wondering what substrate would be best for the tank?
Should i get a new filter or what media filter should i use?
I heard that you do not need intense lighting if you do not have a co2 system, so would i need to upgrade to a better light. Not sure the kind of light i have atm, it is just a standard one that came with the hood.
Thanks again!
