Well, I decided to stick with plants for my 25 hex.
Will keep it in the basement, nice and cool, shooting for 70 degrees or so, because i wish to try a madagascar lace plant in here. (I kept one in my 90, it thrived and died in 6 weeks or so, tooooo hot) It will be the only tall plant, still researching low foreground plants that like it cool.
Co2, I'll do DIY for now.
Lighting, just bought a pc floodlight, 85 watts, 3.4 wpg, should be pretty good. Using a gooseneck floor lamp fixture that fits over the tank perfectly!
Filter HOT Magnum, will adjust lip to decrease surface agitation.
Substrate, Schultz Aquatic Plant Soil. Bought several bags, want to try it in the pond, and in this tank also.
Since I plan to keep this tank cool for my lace plant, I'm thinking White Cloud Mountain Minnows, any other small, cool water, non-plant eating suggestions surely welcome!
