Just got my planted tank finally setup and everything settled in. Was more work then I thought! I boiled the driftwood for nearly 8 hours and was still getting some tan water but I said the heck with it.
Anyways, Since I planed in a such a small tank ( 10gal ) are there any fish/inverts that will eat decaying leaves and such? Doing a water change in such tight quarters with so many plants looks painful.
I was thinking of some cory cats although not many look very exotic, and I wasn't sure if Red Cherry Shrimp will eat decaying leaves - I am getting some later next week. Right now the only thing I have in the tank are about 4 ADF.
Here are some pictures. Its really not much, I just am attempting it and if it turns out well I will setup a 20gal long. Using Root Tabs, and Flourish Excel + Trace. I am going to work abit more on the roots sticking out once everything settles down.
