Hey guys I am getting a little 10 gallon tank setup and I want to make sure I do this one by the book as my last tank was just a rush because I was new to the hobby but I have not lost any of my original fish Anyways I have a 10 gallon that I rinsed and filled with cleaned play sand (watched and read a bunch on the process) and I am letting the little bit of "dust" settle over night. I have a Fluval C3 on this tank set to the lowest setting and I am wanting know a few things.
1) What all can be added to a tank during a fishless cycle? (Plants etc.)
2) What fish and how many are recommended? (I am looking for vibrant colorful fish that are active and fun to watch)
3) What is the best lighting to bring out the color of the fish?
Anything else you guys think I need to know please let me know!
PS: Is it possible to add pool filter sand on top of the sand I already have in the tank?
