In a few days I will be acquiring a used 55 gallon setup that I would like to use for plants only. It will be set up in the garage. I live in central Florida so it doesn't get too cold, maybe a couple to a few light freezes in the winter. I would like to know what I need to make this work. I know I need good lighting, I'll visit a hardware store to deal with that on the cheap. How much filtration, if any, do I need or would a couple of power heads for circulation work? I'm not sure what kind of filtration it has currently, probably a HOB. Would it be healthier to have some shrimp living in there?
Make me a shopping list please...
