Thanks a lot for your replies, I am getting the confidence to order everything now... I have a question regarding the lighting. I am reading that dimming the 601 is not trivial... Are there any other lights that work well with this tank? (Also here in Melbourne the 601's I am looking at are 110...

Hi All, Noob here looking to set up a low tech planted tank. I would like it to house some danios and guppys, and some workers to keep it clean (algae eaters). This is what I have come up with: Tank: ADA Cube Garden 60-H Light: ADA Aquasky 601 Filter: AquaClear 70 Heater: Aquael Unbreakable...
