Hi All,
I bought a Fluval Flex 57 litre back in November and since then I have been considering what type of set up I would like to go for, plant make up and equipment. Initially I had planned no Co2 but decided to take the plunge and invested in Co2 Art regulator and all the associated Co2 art equipment. I have purchased an Allponds skimmer as advised by @Wookii and I will be dosing Tropica specialised nutrient.
My goal is to create a simple nature aquarium with Min Landscape rock and wood, manage a small system, deal with any issues and learn.
Here is the list of plants and quantities (pots from Tropica) I am planning on for the scape. I would very much appreciate if anyone can see any obvious issues with the plant selection before I place an order.
Flora
Background
Limnophila Hippuridoides x3
Hydrophila Siamensis 53B x2
Midground
Bucephalandra sp. Red x3
Anubias Petit or Nana x 3
Cryptocoryne Wendtii Tropica x1 XL pot
Cryptocoryn Petchii x2
Java Fern Narrow leaf x1
Foreground
Eleocharis acicularis mini carpet x3
Helantium Tenellum green carpet x 1
Fauna
1 Angry boy (blue Betta)
Shrimp
Perhaps a couple of Otto's.
