-Playsand substrate
-Seachem - Flourish tabs (root tabs)
-API leaf zone
-Nautral Aquarium Vital (CO2 alternate)
-Food feading: TetraMin flakes, Omega one super veggies, along with some high protein flakes. After affording the light and some other essential upgrades might invest in live food.

Nice tank! Have you thought of adding a background to make the fish "pop"? Just a thought. Great job!

 

[PaulieFish]

Well my thought was to wait for the plants to grow lol, I hate cheezy backgrounds lol

 

[HN1]

LOL. I agree. I hate cheesy too. I was thinking solid black....

 

[PaulieFish]
