I'm doing a fish in cycle (don't judge me!) and it's been 4 days. On Wednesday, I'm planning to add live plants for the sake of the cycle and to maintain water conditions. I've noticed that my platy have been trying to nibble on the fake plant I have in there (is that normal?) even after I feed them..so I don't know if this will affect the live plants or not.
The tank starter kit came with incandescent lighting, which I plan to take out for appropriate lighting. I plan to plant it moderately--not lightly but not heavily either. I have a 10g, and I prefer more of low-medium lighting plants.
My stocking plan consists of platy, cories, and maybe a scarlet badis or two.
Any suggestions on how many watts and what kind of plants I should get? Thanks!
