I've been wanting to set up a high tech planted tank for a while but I need your help! This will be a 4 gallon tank btw
I drew this to give you an idea of what I want it to look like (please excuse the scribbles--they're meant to be moss).
So I have some questions:
-what type of light would I need? I'm thinking of setting up a saltwater tank in the future so to save money, can I use marine lights which I can "recycle" later on? I'm thinking of getting the 165w dimmable chinese LEDs full spectrum.
- would I need a heater ( only thinking of keeping a few shrimp)?
- what type of substrate would you recommend?
- what type of moss would help me achieve what's on the picture?
- for the co2 I'm thinking of using the tropica system 60 which I already own, is that ok?
- which carpeting plant will work best? Dwarf hairgrass?
P.S. Only after I drew it did I realise that I probably wouldn't be able to stick the moss to the rock that way. Oh and the white is just sand.
