SnookusFish inspired me!
I have the lava rock and spiderwood chosen but I’d love some input on what you think should be added for plants and substrates. Pictures below (2 cup measuring glass for scale). The vase is about 2 gallons, but with all the stuff added will be closer to 1. I’m planning on maybe a couple ramshorn snails. One day maybe some neocaridina, but I’m mostly doing it for plants.
I want the little front area to look beachy (so a light sand) but the rocks and back of the vase to be planted. What substrate would you use?
Also, the only tech I’m planning is a light. I want this to be as low maintenance as possible...any tips there? Fast growing plants and lots of them? I added some pictures of my established 29 gallon too - I can steal any plants from there. Would you suggest that I throw the lava rocks and spiderwood in there to start collecting some good bacteria??
