Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Got my first planted tank up and running. I have a 10g tank that used to just be the home of three goldfish. After about a week of reading articles I finally took the plunge (thanks for the advice everyone). Heres whats going on:
Dwarf onion
Scarlet Temple
Fril
Anubias
three goldfish
The goldfish are temporary. I wanted to switch to a planted tank but didn't have the heart to get rid of them. So I'm waiting to get a large bowl
from a friend, or maybe a small tank.
Some notes:
- I have some rocks that I found. From what Ive read they're safe. I want to put these in before the plants start getting too situated, but Im still working on the design.
- The onion isn't really what I was looking for. I wanted something more like a tall Sagittaria. Also, has anyone used Scarlet Temple before? Does it turn out nice?
- I'm a college student, so I'm working with a tight budget. Plants don't cost much but equipment does, so I'm trying to find plants that don't need C02 or warm water, but fit together nice. (..for now)
I'm open to suggestions, and love experimenting if theres any ideas someone has been wanting to try. Let me know what you think.
