As said above, I am starting a 55 gallon planted tank. It will be pretty low-tech. I have done research but there is much more for me to learn. I will be buying a nice fixture from Big Al's:
(Depending on wattage of bulbs I may just keep one light on)
I will be using Flourite substrate, Pea gravel and a bag of API First Layer.
The depth of the substrate will be around 1.5 inches. The main substrate will be Flourite at around a 1.2 inch depth. the other .3 will be from API First Layer Pure Laterite and pea gravel thanks to the Gravel Calc:
(I have a large piece of driftwood as my centerpiece)
This is my plant list so far:
Background:
Cabomba on the far back side
Anacharis in the middle as well as
Wisteria
Midground:
Amazon Sword and Foxtail to the sides of the driftwood
Foreground:
Stargrass and Water Sprite to the sides of the driftwood
Java fern in front and to the sides
What do you guys think?
