so i have been ignoring my big tank for the last month and a bit due to work and exams >.< and now thats done with (exams that is). Im thinking of replanting the tank with live plants.
i currently have 2 java ferns, some rocks and a few fakes set up so its not the most eye catching setup.
tank is temp 27 ph 7 all other parametres normal
as this will be my first planted tank i was hoping for a nice easy set with some good looking plants so ill have a few questions posted here.
ive heard co2 is needed to grow plants, should i get a setup or can i get by without one ?
what plants would you suggest besides java ferns ?
i have some flourite red fertalisr under a layer of sand as the substrate will this be enough ?
UV steraliser, i was told that i needed one by a friend, would this come with a co2 system or do i need to get it seperate ?
more noob questions to come
