There is already a step by step on how to set up a hightech tank. This is great.
There are already tutorials on lighting, co2, EI etc.
An FAQ for this site should perhaps contain a small primer on each subject with a link to the tutorials and then a 'further information' link to either sub forums or searches (eg CO2 Diffusers, CO2 Reactors, Lighting Reflectors...)
If it's for the book then...
Why should I have Live Plants?
Ok, you convinced me, but what's all this about high tech and low tech?
Pretty plants but why all this algae?
Lighting
So I need loads of lighting?
Do I need special plant lamps?
CO2
Wont it poison my fish?
How much should I add?
How do I monitor it?
DIY vs Pressurised?
Diffuser or Reactor?
Fertilisers
What do all the chemical symbols mean?
Macros and traces?
How much do I need to add?
Powders vs liquids?
Substrates
Do I need a special substrate?
Should I layer different types?
Maintenance
So what do I need to do to keep it looking beautiful?
Why do you plant with tweezers?!
How do I prune Plants?
How do I attach plants to rocks and wood?
Help my plant is struggling/deforming/dying!
Fauna
Is there such a thing as an algae crew?
Which snails are plant friendly?
So many shrimps, which ones work best in a planted tank?
What fish should be avoided in a heavily planted tank?
