Hello everyone!
I'm currently in the process of toying with the idea of a new tank. Yes, I think i've got MTS :O
So anyway, heres what I've got planned out so far.
Vol: 29gallon
Heater: 150W and 2x50W(Just in case)
Plants: Silk, lots of bushy ones, or if you've got any suggestions for real plants, i'll give that ago. It would'nt be possible to get a CO2 system so i'm not sure what to go for. I'm looking for a bushy one and a moss mat plant that can cover the whole of the tank floor, maybe hard because of the no gravel vacing, but maybe thats a good thing?
Lighting: 2x25W
Inhabitants: 2xLarge Golden Apple Snails
4xKuhli Loach
3xAfrican Dwarf Frog
1xPleco, any sort, I like Common Pleco's but I think it might get a little big?
More suggestions? I don't like pretty fish, I like the ugly interesting type! Don't get me wrong, pretty fish are interesting too, I just don't like them as much lol)
Substrate: Not sure, so maybe sand to make it easyer for them? What do you think?
Filter: Fluval 404 (I know you can't over filter, but you think I should cut back and go for a 304 or 204? - Or is it the opposite? Do I need more?!)
Anything else I might need? It will be my third tank, so I wan't to get it right.
Hope you can give me some ideas, i'm sort of stuck now.
If you need any more info, or i'm not clear enough just post and i'll be happy to add more!
