I have a pretty heavily planted tank going. Now that the plants have grown in nicely, I was wondering what kind of fish I should get... What do you guys think? (I have a dwarf hair grass carpet and some jungle Val's in a 55 gallon tank)

I have heard of Micro sword narrow leaf or something like that, would that grow in 2wpg? Fish! Fish! Fish!

I have a 55 gallon tank, and I want to have jungle Val's and Dwarf hair grass. I have my sights set on T5 HO's which have a wattage 54w each bulb. I will have 2 of them. Is that enough for the 2 plants? I also have other questions: What fertilizer do I use? Is sand OK? Fish! Fish! Fish!

This is a pretty old tank I found in my basement the other day, all it says is its 15w... Are there any hardy cheap plants you could suggest to test my lights out? Fish! Fish! Fish!

I have two 15w lights in my 5 gallon, would this be enough to grow plants? I know that the WPG rule doesn't apply for small tanks, so what can I grow? Fish! Fish! Fish!

I can do that, but the lights will grow underwater plants, right? The thing that's confusing me is the 'blue spectrum' does that affect anything? Fish! Fish! Fish!

Here are the description it wasn't intended for aquarium use though; Propagate your seedlings effectively with a high output fluorescent light made for plant propagation. 20,000 total lumens in the blue spectrum is perfect for propagating seedlings, clones, or keeping plants happy year round...

Hey, can I use these lights? Or are these not suitable for aquariums? http://m.homedepot.com/p/ViaVolt-4-ft-4-Bulb-T5-High-Output-Copper-Fluorescent-Grow-Light-Fixture-V44/203012866?cm_sp=BazVoice-_-RLP-_-203012866-_-x Fish! Fish! Fish!

No, is excel recommend? Fish! Fish! Fish!

Could I even stay on the less CO2 side and get only a little boost in plant growth? Fish! Fish! Fish!

How Much CO2?I have a low tech planted aquarium with jungle Val's and a couple of crypts. I'm upgrading the tank to high tech soon. I saw a DIY CO2 using 2 litre plastic bottles. My tank is 55 gallons and my lighting is now 3 watts per gallon, it is also moderately planted, how many plastic...

I just got the "warm white" I might add more colors later Fish! Fish! Fish!

LOL That's the exact same thing I made! Looks like great minds think alike ;D Fish! Fish! Fish!

I was planning on making my own lighting for the tank using high powered LED strips to cut down on the costs, you think I can grow live plants in the tank? Fish! Fish! Fish!
