    Preferred Soil To Use In Dirted Tank?

    So I want to start getting my feet wet with dirted tanks on a 5.5 gal that currently sits in the corner of my room with nothing substantial in it. I have done some research and people keep recommending Miracle Grow Organic Choice Potting Mix...

    Beamswork Lighting for Low Tech Planted?

    So I'm looking to upgrade the light on my 55gal to LED, and I'm thinking about getting this: Beamswork EA Timer 6500K 0.50W LED Aquarium Light Freshwater Plant. Ideally I want between 15 to 30 par, at 18", probably a bit closer to 30. I will not be running CO2. Planning on getting low light...

    Beta Sorority Tank

    Just curious as to anyone's opinions or experiences with keeping female betas. I've heard a lot of mixed reviews on the topic of keeping more then one in the same tank, let alone with different species. I was thinking about doing it, but I'm getting the impression that it's probably a bad idea...

    Converting Current Setup to a Planted Tank

    Hey, so I currently have a 55 gal setup. It has been slightly neglected for about a year because of college, but I want to start getting it back into shape. I only have two Clown Plecos in there right now. What I want to do is start turning it into a low tech planted tank, and considering that...
