As always, first question. What's your water like? Being in London? I'm guessing hard.

I've run one for years low tech. With the internal and a koralia nano 900. Upgraded the impeller to the 1000 lph and removed the koralia when I just grew java fern,anubias & crypts. Biggest problem may be in the T5 lighting, but I'm sure you can get around that.

Try this.

Some stems branch better / more easily than others. For me, Rotala tends to, where Bacopa tends to not.

Depends what type of look you want in a carpet Marsilea Hirsuta Micran. Monte Carlo Are easier ime

For what its worth as its currently out of stock. Got a cheap ebay dimmer on my 36cm high tank. Quite pinky light IMO,but now I'm used to it. I like its more streamlined profile compared to Chihiros.

Unless you got Nerite snails.....

Now that's not something you see everyday on here........ Makes a change from Bba questions :D

Should do the trick nicely. I run a similar set up with the Ex1200. As much as I like Jbl filters the 901e didn't give me enough flow. And tbh when it comes to maintenance time,I prefer the tap set up on a Tetratec,to the block on a Jbl. Mines 6 years old,and never leaked.
