They are grown in sand with root tabs with the addition of CO2. All plants grow great in low-tech as I have them in low-tech tanks too! There are snails in my tank.

A 40g tank is perfect for starting again, I love the size of a 40B. I have a 40B and I also have an angelfish. I personally do not recommend getting an angelfish for the 40B. While my female adult angelfish is not the biggest, I feel like a 55g would be much better for her.
The liquid co2 boosters do not give any Co2 to the tank. If anything they are okay to use when you have algae as it can sometimes help with it. But it does not give any Co2.
I am not sure if there are brands for the canisters. Any will probably work as long as it is stamped and not expired. I...
I would also use some root tabs in the sand as well. Since you won't be using aquasoil or Co2 then I would just go with a Twinstar CA or B series.
Or you could do with a Nicrew Skyled Plus off of Amazon which has gotten my plants to stay a decent pink color. Make sure to get the 18-24'' size...
Without Co2, you may not achieve the reddest plants but you will still get some color. I would look into the CA and EA series (B or CA series) of the twinstar light which would be well suited for your medium tech tank. Do you plan on using aquasoil?
I assume the Fluval Planted 3.0 should be plenty but at that price you can easily go for a Twinstar light as well which you may like more than the Fluval 3.0.
Are you doing Co2?
Well it has been a very long time since I have updated this build thread. The 40g has changed a bunch over these last months, with the addition of a CO2 system and a brighter light. Plus the addition of the baby corydoras and pleco to the tank. I've really enjoyed setting up this tank and being...
I personally love sand much better than gravel, it looks better and more natural in my opinion. Gravel also tends to trap a lot more debris than sand can and which is another reason why I don't like to use it. In terms of plants I've never had an issue with planting them in sand, as long as you...
I can't see the snail very well in the picture, but from the way you describe the shell could it be a ramshorn snail? Does it look similar to this article's pictures?

That almost looks like a prolapsed anus, look it up and see some pictures of what that is and see if it looks similar irl. In the picture it looks a bit blurry so thats what I think it looks like but when my fish had camallanus worms it did not look like that.
The levamisole is the only way to go with this kind of worm. Make sure to follow the right amount and instructions for the levamisole and to repeat the dosage again roughly 3 weeks later to ensure they are gone. I've had to deal with them and they were not fun at all. Also make sure you have no...
I have another 10g planted tank that will soon be empty, I will keep the WCMM as an option, thank you for the suggestion!
I already have floaters in the pond, but I can definitely add some more into the tank. I also have a tiger lotus in the tank that is about to shoot up some leaves for coverage.
Of course. Yes she could have been breathing hard from the chasing as well. Spawning mops are made for eggs to get stuck in so the parents can't go for them. Not sure how they would do for adult guppies. If you can get terracotta pots and some plants whether real or fake to break the line of...
