Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hi, my name is Laura. I've started my first aquarium last month (it's just 19 days old) and have a lot to learn. I love plants and when I saw a video about aquascaping I was sold.
So far my 25 litre (5 gallon) tank contains Java Fern, Cryptocoryne Parva and Ludwigia Mini (the normal and super red one). Also I have 2 pieces of mopani wood but I had someone tell me (on a facebook group) that this wasn't the best choice for a beginner since it changes the water parameters alot. Also just got the tip it would be good for the plants to get a heater in the tank.
I just want to take things slow with the tank since I'm such a beginner and would be devastated if I bought an animal like fish or shrimp and they'd be extremely unhappy.
I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions about were to go to with my tank. Since it's quite small I can imagine my choices are limited but I'm open to learn a lot from you guys, thanks for reading
