Hey guys. This is the first time I have posted in this part of the forum. This is the first time I have bought plants as well :D. I have a 46g bowfront, its 20in and I have two filters; ac-70, penquin 200. I bought an amazon sword, camboda, and hornwort. I also have 4 pictus catfish, 2 frontosas, goldfish and spotted raphael catfish. Would it be alright if I put all three plants in. Thanks
 
it mainly depends on your lighting, I have a 46 bowfront set up with a twin bulb hagen glo t5 and my amazon is doing great, and the other two should grow well also
 
I have a regular florscuent that came with the hood. Also, every day, small pieces of my hornwort and camboda are coming off and getting stuck to both my intakes. I turned down the flow rate on my AC. Is this normal? Thanks. Also, would it be okay to get more or would that be detrimental at night?
 
you might want to get better lights so the plants will be able to photosynthesize more and be healthier, but you can get more in the hope that it will stay together
 
What light would you recommened? Right now its an aqua-glo. I heard power glo is a good one?
 
Right now I am running a t5ho hagen glo light system with the power-glo and the life-glo bulbs but any t5 system will work well
