25 gallons planted tank (mostly live plants and fish) - This was my first set up in my 25 gallon from the beginning of 2014. I experimented with a type of red sand that can be found locally. Everything grew exceptionally well, however the sand was so nutrient rich that running a UV sterilizer with it was necessary.
