Ok i have some plants in my tank, found out that you need to feed them and they need CO2. What do i need to feed them, i need a website or somthing that sells them cheap as got no money for a while. do i really need CO2 or is it just a pea take??

Thanks
Luke

Luke,

I would have a read of most of the links in this section : http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?/topic/296418-planted-aquariums-resource-center/

This should answer most of your questions.

It really depends on what plants you have whether they will require certain additional nutrient, also how much lighting you currenlty have.

Lots of plants will happily survive in low light / low tech setups which require very little additional nutrients, while others demand high light and CO2 injection.

Hope this helps a little,
Regards,

Mark
