I'd like to introduce myself to what looks to me to be a fantastic site
I'd like to describe myself as fairly knowledgable when it comes to fish but when it comes to plants I'm a total novice
Its a matter of plant them and hope for the best - which is usually either coated in black algae or brown and full of holes
Not something I'm proud to admit but like the fish I just need to learn - hence joining this forum
So from the beginning please where do I start?
Can I just tell you my tank is about 170l (it was made to order so isn't a brand) I run a Fluval 305 external filter. It has two lighting tubes (1 pink 1 blue) which I have on from 1pm to 9pm. The substrate is JBL Manado recommended by my LFS.
I have a couple of large pieces of bogwood & a few sizeable pieces of rock, I don't really know the names of the plants I currently have been I would say they are so so at the moment
Do you need to know anything else?
Any help will be much appreciated
