I sold all the central and south American fish i had in my tank. all of a sudden my mind decided to go with a good planted tank. i need help walking thru with this.

at this very moment, tank has no gravel. only one armored catfish (Callichthys callichthys) with 3-rena xp2 canisters, 2 sponge filters.

my purchase list - i have ordered 200 lbs of Flourite™ Original 75 lbs of regular gravel. will this be enough or do i need more?

i am looking for easy maintenence, low light plants. moss, anubias, ferns and so on. i have 4 regular fluorescent bulbs. i will get the specifications later tonight.

where can i purchase healthy plants at a cheap price. do i need to add CO2.
