I am looking forward to setting up a tank with some carpet plants. I have been looking around and I would like to use HC as my carpet plant (very expensive tho! $10 per pot at Big Als).
I need to know if I have sufficient equipment for this set up:
- 10 Gallon
- Fluval 204
- Coralife T5 10,000K 14 watts x 2 = 28 watts (should I use 6,000K?)
- DIY Co2 Diffuser
Substrate (This is what I have right now, but I am willing to purchase different substrate for better results):
- Flourite
- Black sand
If this setup is not sufficient, what do I need to make the HC grow into a good layer of carpet?
Any recommendation is appreciated.
