HI folks,
I have a small 40-litre nano tank that I am going to set up while I wait for my larger tank.
Just looking some feedback on what to use for:
Filter - There is a rear compartment on the tank to hold filter/heater/pump etc.
What media should I use? Types of sponge etc?
Substrate - What substrate should I use (and how thick)? I am looking to keep some easy to keep plants (some carpet ones if possible?
Fish - What kind of small fish could be kept and how many?
Water - My tap water is soft here. Should I use conditioners on this water? If so, what do you recommend?
Plants - Any ideas of what I should get?
Light - I have a custom LED Light. I will use it at first and see how I get on.
Scape - I may make a small hardscape too. Type of stone? I'm thinking 1 'peak' surrounded by carpet plants so it looks like a mini mountain.... Lonely Mountain as the name?! WHo knows...
Thank you for your help
