Moss tank

[Aqua sobriquet]

My newly set up Nano will have mainly Moss in it so do I need to add ferts to it until/if I actually put other plants in there? I assume if I do add ferts the moss will grow a bit quicker but will it be enough to keep algae at bay, and what about Easycarbo?!

Are there any fast growing plants I should find space for that would help to keep Algae at bay? I really need help on this one!

from what i gather moss should do ok without ferts liquid carbon etc you could chuck some elodea in to suck up excess nutrients during the break in period keep algae at bay darell has a thread on the dukweed index a method of determining if plants are lacking nutrients http://www.ukaps.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=21003
