Hey guys,
I'm about to pull the trigger on the substrate for my new 120g. Ive been all over the net reading opinions and experiences about eco complete. I have the chance to get 10 bags at a reasonable price to combine with 30 lbs of black fluorite and some black fluorite sand.
Would you do it?
Or would you go with pfs and use the money (about 130$ saved) on better lights, pressurized co2 and ferts? I just really like the look of eco. I seem to have trouble getting past that. full-on fluorite is no good because the barbels on my cats get torn up, and ill never wash fluorite sand again after the last fiasco. I need a magical no-wash cheap black pf sand or something, lol.
Any opinions are appreciated
(the residents are/will be hoplo cats, perches and chocolate cichlids from my current tank)
