Aquarium Advice Newbie
Went down to the local thrift store today and snagged another 5 gallon tank (which I really don't need more 5 gallon tanks
) for $6 with everything in the picture included. Seems like a decent filter, and I like the use of a bio wheel. Do filters with the pad laying horizontally instead of vertically work well? My plan for this tank is to make it a Betta tank. I plan on switching out the incandescent light with an LED light and reselling the decorations and rocks. What are your guys ideas on what I should do with it as a Betta tank? What plants can I put in it? I plan to make it a planted tank. Also would Florescent grow plants better than LED? I use LED in my other aquariums but thought I'd ask because I have the chance to go either way here. Thanks!
