Hi,
so a friend of mine decided he would like a planted aquarium. He said he would take care of it and that he want's an amazing looking tank. I have decided to go low tech for 2 reasons...1 if I knew how to make an amazing looking tank I would have done it myself and 2 I have no faith in him that he will take care of the tank!
So I have decided to go with the low tech and I can't decided what plants to get or what lighting to use or what substrate to use.
My thoughts were to have sand as substrate, a nice piece of wood with rocks around it and then plants like anubias and ferns on and around the rock. Now there will be no CO2. Will it be better if I use ADA Amazonia around the wood to plant a few pants there like Eleocharis and Stayrogen Repens? Will they survive without any CO2 of any form?
Also 1 T5 will suffice?
He will dose Tropica Specialised fertiliser if needed.
Alot of questions that are not yet coherent but we will get there
Thanks
