i really like your tank i hope to have a nice planted one soon
Co2 injection. Ask a local petstore for one. They range in size of aquariums and so does the price. Lolol
Plant java fern… it’s beautiful and can be moved around the tank because it doesn’t root in the gravel. It can root if it’s left in one spot for a long time. You can push it down into the gravel to make it stay, but it’s easy to move. I pull the new growths off the leaves and secure them in the gravel in the front of the tank. That way, you have larger plants in the back and small in the front. Java fern is super easy to grow!!
you have some new born guppys there
i think your fish think its foodtime and how do you add co2? and can you add it with fish in the tank?[any advice on how to get plants to grow faster? my tank(10gal) has 3 plants in it(i just got it)(i hada 2.5 but the plants dint grow right so can you give me some advice on how to add co2??
Sand is substrate…
Gravel is fine for most plants but just like the sand it takes a bit to build up nutrients.
I use eco-complete in all my tanks and have heard good things about ADA Aquasoil as well.
I see them all them time. Stocking, (the supply) and plant types (the demand) is going to determine whether or not you are going to need co2 injection.
The more light and ferts you use, the more likely c02 is what your plants are lacking.
hi, first of all very nice tank!, i have recently got a 150L aqua one complete set up with lights included for freshwater plants. i was just wondering before I go ahead and buy any plants, do i need any liquid fertilizer or any chemicals for that matter to make it look as good as yours? Thanks
yeah as i saw a really good tank without CO2 just search “soccer community fish tank” on youtube.
-yes I know the tags sound awkward but its the first video
if u want co2 just search “diy co2 generator” its shows you how to make one
Its easy to call ppl gay when you’re half a world away. You’re probably a virgin with nothing better to do than break ppl’s balls.
Do you absolutely need sand and a good substrate to get a tank like that? Ive had this tank for 3 years and i have gravel and its gonna be very annoying if i have to switch to sand. Any suggestions?
no, because most plants require co2 injection to survive, plus you’re super gay.
is it possible to have a well planted tank without Co2?
i take it you add co2 correct?
Beautiful tank, nice work man!
trim it then give me some of them XP! JK….
I dig it.
Can anybody tell me wether my lighting is good enough for my plants. i have a 20 gallon with a total of about 19 to 20 watts lighting flourecant full hood. i want some low lighting plants like anacharis, java moss, java ferns, anubias, some amazon swords if possible. and i would like to know if they can be planted in pool filter sand or sand. and i would also want to know if i still need to fertilze them.i dont want to use co2 because i cant afford it plese help!thanks.(ANYBODY PLEASE RESPOND)
