Aquarium Advice FINatic
So I'm pretty much new to planted tanks. I've done some java fern and moss on driftwood in my 5 gallon, but that's about it.
I'm just beginning to set up a new 10 gallon and while it's cycling I'd like to learn how to plant it and get some aquascaping ideas. I'm going to have 2x15w CFL so I'm guessing this will be low light? Might there be some medium light plants that would grow well with that amount of light?
I have about an inch of black gravel at the moment. Do I need more gravel?
I've read that gravel isn't a great substrate for plants, but I really like this stuff. If I add flourish root tabs, will that help?
Can anyone suggest some 10 gallon low tech tanks I can look at to get some ideas?
