Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I am highly considering adding a 40 gallon breeder tank this year, and this is what I'm considering doing.
Lighting:
Ecoxotix E-90 Full Spec LED (heard wonderful reviews)
Heating:
Two 150 Watt Heaters (overkill?)
Filtration:
AquaClear 70. (or two 50's? something better?)
Marineland Maxi-Jet Powerhead 900 with Hydro Sponge Pro III fitted to the intake, and DIY CO2 line fitted to a DIY Spray Bar for the head. (ideas?)
Substrate:
Thinking of mixing Flourite Dark, and Flourite Sand Red (another suggestion?)
Misc:
Possibly adding an Aqueon 500 for circulation, and two 6" airstones hooked to a dual outlet air pump. (suggestions?)
Plants:
Not sure on most, but Swords, Wisteria, Java Ferns, Java Moss, Anubias, Lobelia, Bacopa, Crypt's, Chainswords, Dwarf Baby Tears, Ludwigia, Banana Plant, Dwarf Sag, Pennywort, Cabomba Anacharis, Hornwort, are what I have had success with in the past, might try a combination of what I know, and something new.
Will be picking up the tank possibly Friday, because that is the only thing I'm 100% on.
