I have kept large planted tanks with green sunfish in the past, and crayfish in a non planted tank (she ate them all lol). Currently I have a tiny 10 gallon tank that is not planted, so I am not sure how well I'll do with it as I'm used to the large amount of plant matter and only one or two small fish and some snails with scuds to clean up and deep substrate that actually kept water parameters good on it's own, I would change a 1/4 now and then with spring water just to keep it topped off. The idea of having to keep fish alive without plants seems daunting, but my husband wants a tank with colorful fake plants so i'm going to try it. We have town water now and I am worried I'll forget to treat the water one of these days, because I'm used to spring water living in the country, wish me luck. I live in the Finger Lakes in NY U.S.
