GlitcH said:Hey there guys.........I'm loving this thread.
I just found this site today.......I'm looking to start up a 92gallon planted tank.
I think I just may do as LWB is and start a thread to show my own progress.
I'm not nearly as detailed as he is but I think fun to pick the brains of all you pros.
Speaking of picking brains..........what is the CO2 for? The plants? I've had fish tanks since I was a boy but I'm kinda new to planted tanks.
Also, what is a Eco-Complete?
LOL my first post and I'm a pain already!
Anyway......great forum and an awesome thread.........I'll be sticking around here for a long time to come.

Lonewolfblue said:Hi....
Yes, the CO2 is for the plants. For lighting above 2w/g, you usually will need CO2. You can use Flourish Excel as the carbon source, but on a big tank, it's not cost effective, and will be spendy.
Eco Complete is the substrate (gravel). It's designed for planted tanks. Also had a bunch of nutrients as well.
Hope to see your posts soon in your thread as you go through, documenting what you do. Good luck.
