Im in the process of setting up a 20L aquarium that will be used primarily as plant nursery for growing out plants that I plan on using in other tanks. I have little experience with live plants and even less success, so Im also hoping to use this as a learning experience. Nothing is actually set up yet and I was hoping to see if Im over looking anything and maybe ask a stupid question.
I'll be using the Fluval Full Spectrum LED lighting that claims to be designed for plant use. Fluval Daylight Aqualife & Plant LED Aquarium Lamp - LED Aquarium Fish Tank Lights - petco.com
I have the Fluval Pressurized CO2 88 kit. Freshwater Planted Aquarium & Plant Care: Fluval Pressurized CO2 Kit
Ive purchased 2 bags of CaribSea Eco-Complete Planted Aquarium substrate that I'll be adding Flourish Root Tabs to. I plan on the substrate being 3" deep. I also have the Fourish Comprehensive Suppliment along with their Potassium and Iron suppliments.
For filtration I'll be using an Eheim ECCO 2232 canister. Aquarium Water Quality & Filtration: Eheim ECCO Canister Filters
Does this sound sufficient? Any tips or suggestions?
I dont plan on adding any fish initially, so do I still need to cycle the tank prior to adding plants?
