Hey all,
I recently started a planted tank again because i missed all the tinkering about thats involved with them.i havent done a scape as such, more so i just put some wood and stones in and some crypts i had from another tank. I dont plan on a proper scape quite yet, i just want to see what i can get to grow first and then work a scape around that. So basicaly its so i can see what i can get to carpet for me lol.
So heres the tank with the crypts and some anubius to be planted
And with the anubius on the wood,
The tank is about 50ltrs i think and has 4 x11w compact lights(loads of light but each bulb has its own switch so all wont be on at the same time, unless i need them)
The substrate is aqua basis topped with manado and the manado is a pain because its soo light.
So my questions,
1 the anubius isnt tied or glued to the wood, its just wedged onto it, is there any problem with that?
2 what carpet plant do yous think i might have some luck in this tank? Are glosso or hc an option?
3 im using easycarbo and diy tpn+ and waiting to get a regulater/solenoid for pressurised co2 but i dont know what one to get, i had one that had the reg,solenoid and bubble counter but i broke it and they dont sell them on ebay anymore, so could someone reccomend one for me please?
Cheers
