I have a 20 gallon long with sand only. I have a java fern, crypts, water wisteria planted, and some Anubia.
I'm wanting to step it up to the next level so am planning to get some dwarf sag, or styrogyne rapens for a carpet. I'll also add other root feeders also.
I'm dosing pps ferts and injecting co2. I also have 2 sat+ led fixtures. On paper these lights put out 36 par per light. Combined for 60 -70 together I'm assuming.
Am I just going to be wasting my time trying to get them to grow in this inert sand substrate or will root tabs be enough plus the pps ferts. I'd rather find out now and go ahead and redo the substrate than find out later.
