I am fairly new to planted tanks but I want to try it. I am setting up a tank to breed convict cichlids and i would like it to he heavily planted. If i go with the Eco-complete substrate how much do you suggest. The bag says about 3" does anyone have any experience with how much will work the best? Also should I use this as my only substrate or mix a gravel with it?
Just let me know if i am on the right tack with this one. From what I have read if i use low lighted plants i can get away with not using CO2? But i suppose that if i am going for heavily planted i should look into it?
Thanks ahead of time
