Planted tank beginner

[Aqua~Man]

Hi, I'm new to the ukaps and was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to starting a planted aquarium , I own a small tank and as of yet have not got involved in the green side of things

There is a LOT of info on this site. It has taken me a long time to get through a lot of it.

Perhaps start here - Tutorials | UK Aquatic Plant Society

What tank / equipment do you have at the moment?

I have a superfish 65 with internal filter and heater

I am looking into buying a new setup and have done some research looking into rimless aquarium and led lights etc but would like someone's opinion on what is the best way to go about it

I would say read as much as you can then come back with questions, establishing a budget is key (IMO)

I did it the wrong way round, I normally research the hell out of everything but with my tank I got sucked in at my local shop and spent way too much money and ended up with wrong size tank etc.

To me you need a bit of patience.
