Aquarium Advice Regular
so I just recently got back into fish keeping, i have started a 10 gal, which holds wild/ feeder guppies and 2 glass shrimp.
While i am not new to the hobby, i am new to plants, i have always admired a planted tank and really want to make it work.
So far the only plants i have are some duck weed and a green hygro that a lfs sold me, i was not impressed with the person helping me. they didn't have much for a beginner, or he didn't want to take the time, although the store looked really nice, well kept healthy fish and clean but not too much. I also have a nice piece of drift wood. kind of boring still.
So what would you suggest, I don't want to spend a ton but want a nice lush tank? I also would like a suggestion as to which light bulb works the best for this small tank? I have both types of fixtures the long tubes or screw in type.
Thanks
Chris
