Petsmart does not carry eco-complete and calling around I cannot find anyone in the Tulsa area that carries eco-complete. I read somewhere that floramax is acceptable. What say y'all?
Should I keep trying to find ecocomplete or just go with floramax? Also, for anyone that knows of a good mom and pop aquarium shop in the Tulsa area please let me know. The couple I have found are really more about saltwater. Petsmart is kind of limited in what they offer and their knowledge.
Plus, how deep does the substrate need to be for a planted tank? I have read it should be deeper in the back and taper down, but I am not sure how deep it should start and what would be the minimum etc.
Also, since pool sand is so much cheaper would there be any problem with the the majority of the substrate being sand with a small layer of ecocomplete or floramax on top? Or what other effective, but economical options might there be?
