Hi all, I want to make my current 10 gal (all stock equipment) to a high-tech planted tank, I already have a lot of plants in there but I need help with the equipment. What kind of light or co2 system can be used for such a small tank? Is it even worth it?
 
I have seen many great little planted tanks. DIY Co2 is very effective on a smaller tank and there are High output T5 fixture that will work. It is certainly worth the effort if you want to put the time into it.
 
There are plenty of 20" dual t5ho fixtures that you can get reasonably priced, and co2 doesn't necessarily have to be high tech. I picked up a prepackaged one for around $30 and added a purchased glass diffuser. My plants started pearling 3 days after adding both. Just takes a little research
