Im kind of a newbee, and just started a dark period with my new Juwel vision 260 tank. Substrate - abt 60% of the tank has a 1/2 - 2 inch layor of pond soil (from front to back) capped with at least twice the thickness of black sand (JBL Sansibar Dark, 0.2 – 0.5 mm.), and the rest of the area is covered with sand and blac gravel (2-5 mm). Put in some big rocks, and 5 smaller roots and one big root (red wood - think mangrove). For further info see my journal .
Began a "black start" today. Have kept the standard juwel internal filter, although think it takes up too much space! The filter came with
What filter material should I add to the current setup, and should I change some of the filter material when I put plants ... and eventually... fish in the tank?
(PS: have also posted this in the planted tank forum)
