Aquarium Advice FINatic
Hello all,
I set up my tank about a month and a half ago and really like the setup. One huge piece of Mopani and some other African root wood, looks very nice. The one thing I now regret is decorating with plastic plants. Have gravel as my substrate and am wondering what I am getting into with transforming my tanks to natural plants. Do I need to remove the gravel or can the plants root in it? I know I will probably have to tweak my lighting, add a CO2 system and that's fine with me. I just don't want to go through all the work and expense just to have the plants die. If you would look at my tank info I would really appreciate it, I also appreciate all wise and knowing answers!
