Aquarium Advice Regular
This is my first Invert setup. Any feedback is always welcome.
My goal with this setup was to create as much micro surface area as I could (within reason, cause yeah I could get carried away as well). This is why I chose to use lava rock. I also wanted some darker areas for hiding places within the hardscape but not too much because I want light to hit most of the tank. That said, I also don't think I want a high tech setup for the shrimp, although that may change over time.
I'm not 100% on what plants I'm going to put in here. I would love to put some Bucephalandra. I'm thinking about putting those up top. I'd like to find a nice ground cover, I'm just not sure what would be a good fit. Anyone know of a Buse that makes a good ground cover in a setup like this? I'm also considering some sort of moss but I'm not sure if they'll really do well on soil vs being attached to rock or something. If anyone has suggestions that would be dandy.
