Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hi. Brand new to this forum.
I'm looking for some tips on plant trimming and upkeep. My planted tank seems to support a ton of plant growth, but since I am entirely self taught at this hobby, I don't know the best way to start trimming. I got the super long Fluval scissors and tweezers already. Any advice for an aquascaping newb?
My setup:
15 gallon (24x12x12)
T5 ho 24 watts x 2
Cascade 1200 canister filter with biofilter, charcoal, Fluval Clearmax (phosphate remover), limestone and seashell mix
DIY CO2
2" EcoComplete black planted substrate filled in with about 1" black sand
ADA Iron Bottom root tabs
Animals:
2 Hybrid Rams
9 Rasboras
5 Tetras
3 Kuhli loaches
2 Otos
2 Snails
1 CRS
1 Siamese algae eater
Plants:
Valisneria
Cabomba
Rotala
Subwassertang moss
Misc swords (maybe amazons)
Misc anubia
