Aquarium Advice Addict
this is the list i gathered up while i was at my LFS, this is for my 20g long four betta compartments, each compartment will be its own theme and i was wondering if these are good for a 48watt t5 lighting, can i get your reviews on these plants?
1) im planning to switch from gravel to eco complete, can i just mix it with the gravel? or do i need to take everything out and than put eco complete?
2) as for CO2, is it mandatory to get it? i dont have a hood, would i need one if i was to get a CO2 injector? any dangers to it?
3) do i need a air pump for plants?
4) with these plants, i read i need stuff like "Trace Elements" and "Iron-Rich Fertilizer", what does it all mean O____O
5) which are perfect for bettas, i want to at least have one plant just hovering around the surface for cover and one or two main plants to cover the dividers so they dont see each other quite often
if i knew a lot about plants i wouldnt ask all these questions lol, but i am a plant noob and would love to learn about them ^_^
