From the advice of others on here and research on the cost I have decided not to go with a planted tank for my 130Gal Fw. I do have a 17-18 Gal tank, have just has 1 angel fish that I had to remove from the 130 because the other fish were bitting its fins, but I will be selling the Angel back to the LFS if I can not find a good home for it. I was playing with the idea of turning this tank into a planted tank, currently it has a 125 peguin (I think that is spelled wrong) power filter, with a heater (that I will replace as soon as I decide what to do with the tank), and a 20 watt tube light. Got the tank for free from my friend. Now I wanted to go with dwarf puffer (I believe they stay under an inch when full grow) fish for the tank, but do not recall if puffer fish do good with planted tanks. Can anyone give me so information with dwarf puffers and planted tanks? Am I asking for trouble or is this a good combo. Also an suggestions on the wattage I would need for this, type of plants recommended, and would a small algae eater be safe with the puffers? I would also place some of the common snails for algae as well as food for the puffers. Thanks in advance for any info and advice.
