Once I get my larger tank next year, I wanted to turn my 10 gal that I currently have into my 'tetra tank', as I have mentioned in other posts. Althought I am teetering now on a 20 gal for the tetras and using the 10 gal for my QT tank.
Anyway regardless of the tank, I have read that tetras look fantastic and thrive well in a planted tank. I just simply have no idea where to begin. What type of substrate? What type of plants? If I keep my 10 gal will I need to change my lighting? It currently has 2 15w/120v bulbs on it. The light fixture came with the top of the tank, I just had to buy the bulbs.
Can someone start me off on this game board in a direction? I would really love to see my favorite types of tetra schooling about in leafy greens.
TIA!
