About Yourself: .

Advice: Think things through. This is my first planted tank and is a bit of a mess as I rushed into it. Gradually getting there though. Also, if you intend to grow live plants some form of CO2 or carbon additive is a must. Don't even attempt to grow demanding plants with one or both of them as you won't get very far.

Fish Kept: Harlequins, Neon Rainbows, Glowlight and Neon Tetras, Otos, Corys and pair of Blue Rams.

Plants Kept: Amazon Swords, Alternanthera, Ludwigia, Hygrophila, various crypts, Ambulia, Rotala, Hydrocotyle.

Tank Size: 27

Description: Planted community tank. Lighting is 3 x T8 Amazon Day, 54w total lit for 9 hours a day, pressurised CO2 plus 1ml daily of liquid carbon additive. Substrate is plain gravel with nutriballs inserted at 4" intervals. Weekly fertilizing with Tropica Aquacare, nitrates and phosphate.
