I searched all of the lfs and did not find any of the root tabs, excel, comprehensive suppliment, or nitrogen that was recommended to me from my past thread. In addition, they didn't have any live plants. SO, I just got done ordering all of that stuff online from Big Al's. After the stuff gets here I wanted to start right away with planting my 5 gal. I'll have to drive a bit further (about 2 hours) to get plants but I'm SO excited.
I also bought weights for the plants because the only decor that is in my tank is this little ceramic thing. It doesn't have a place to tie down the plants onto. Will the weights be ok to use?
I guess my main question is once I get the plants home, tie them down, do I need to add anything else to the tank right away?
What is the schedule like for using the tabs, excel, suppliment, and nitrogen? Is this stuff that I just use once a week or on a daily basis? I am a complete newbie to all of this and the people at the lfs had NO clue about live plants. They just recommended plastic ones.
If this seems like a lot of questions, I'm sorry. I am just so anxious to get started.
