    So which of these lighting deals would be best?

    I'm in the same position. I have a 25" deep tank with low-medium light plants and fish and no CO2. After doing a lot of shopping and reading, the Finnex looks like the best deal I just cannot determine whether the Fugeray is enough or the Ray2 is too much. I've tried contacting finned and...

    Starting First Planted w/65G, Please Advise

    Thanks for all of the input. How would you modify your plant list if I said no CO2?

    Starting First Planted w/65G, Please Advise

    The Mrs. gave me a new Aqueon 65G aquarium for Christmas and I would like to try my hand with live plants. My goal is to have an inexpensive, low maintenance, low light planed tank with tropical fish. My first concern is algae. My house has tons of natural light all day and I've noticed my old...

    Marineland Double Bright LED Poll

    Mixing Eco-complete and Moon Sand

    It's possible they don't keep it as clean as they could or that they cycle through so many plants that it looks worse than it would in my tank. I've only seen it live once, so it's not a very good sample, I admit. Thanks for the info. I'll stick with just eco for my base.

    Mixing Eco-complete and Moon Sand

    I'm about ready to go with a 75 gallon planted tank with fish. I'll be asking for a lot of advice on this one since my only other experience is with a 26G and plastic plants. This time I'm thinking about the look. It will probably be low-medium light with tons of natural ambient light (can't be...

    how many watts?

    I too am considering a 60 gallon tank and a Jager heater. They say the 150W is good for up to 79 gallons. Why get more?

    What tank?

    Can you expand on this? How does it limit your options? I've only seen pictures of these tanks so I don't understand how they really differ. Thanks.
