I'm looking to purchase a new tank, been a while.. quite a while..
But after moving I sold off all my tanks, fish, lizards, snakes ETC
It's been over 6years since I had a tank last.
My boyfriend and I got a small tank with a beta and the addiction is back..with a vengance..
I have a great growing echinodrus bleheri and some duckweed at the moment.
But that's not enough.
I had 8 tanks previously with mostly Africans and a bichir tank setup.
I'm wanting to start nothing larger than a 55gal right now but fully planted.
I'm mostly confused on substrate.. as well as c02 infusion?
What kind of substrate is best or advisable? A 55 isnt that big but I do not want to purchase a bunch of filler and then it be the incorrect stuff for the plants. I understand lighting etc and will continue to read on the c02 infusion but with a heavily stocked tank how much would be needed? Because my plan as always is to heavily stock because I like it lol
Any help would be appreciated!
