My new tank arrives in 3 weeks and will be my first properly planted one.Tank dimensions are 60" x 24" x 30" high, it is bay fronted so gives a total of 135g 613 litres .The Lfs said the lighting would be fine with 3 x 54w T5 s with reflectors but this does'nt seem enough since reading some of the pinned threads and especially as it is 30" deep.The Lfs also said that the nutrifin C02 kit would work and again after reading this seems like its not enough and I'll need a pressurised system?. The last question for the moment is substrate, the Lfs said 4 x 3 litre bags of laterite mixed with normal gravel would be enough for this set up?
I now think these areas all need improving by getting another 54w T5 tube, pressurised C02 system and then need to decide on either EI or ADA for feeding the plants dependant I suppose on substate. Your thoughts and opinions would be apprieciated. Thanks in advance
