Firstly my thanks to all for the assistance.
I’ve had an aquarium for around 5-6 years but only recently moved toward planted and scaped.
Trying my best to avoid newbie errors and need pointing in the right direction
So I’m changing my substrate (see previous post) and have chosen Tetra Active Plant for a couple of reasons.
Firstly it gets some decent reviews and is mentioned on here favourably a couple of times.
Secondly it seems to promise a lot in terms of the right natural colour and being geared to delivering a decent amount of nutrients to the plants.
Thirdly it’s within my budget. £21 12L.
Now my question is what to use under it and will it need to be capped off on top?
I’m thinking alfagrog on the bottom with tetra active on top?
Alfagrog to build some height and tetra to plant in.
Having never used Tetra Active Plant does anyone have experience and will it be ok on its own on top? I don’t want to go to all the trouble of replacing the substrate to find muddy water or any other negative effects?
Sorry for all the questions and my ignorance!
