All my tanks currently are saltwater, but I have an extra 20g long that I want to set up a a freshwater planted tank. I would like to have it heavily planted and plan on buying a dual t5 fixture to support high light plants with driftwood/java moss etc. The only livestock I have somewhat set in stone currently is a blue ram or some kind of ram.
There are 3 decent fish stores locally, none of them sell anything other than gravel/silica sand/fluval stratum(overpriced crap). I work at petsmarthttp://www.petsmart.com and the only different thing we sell is laterite, a tiny box for a outrageous price(its just cat litterhttp://viglink.pgpartner.com/mrdr.p....com/search.php/form_keyword=cat+litter&mode= isn't it?).
I've read eco-complete is one of the best, but it would cost too much to get shipped in. I also want this tank to look nice so no really messy substrates preferably.
What are my options? Sand/soil mix of some kind? Any suggestions?
Thanks
