I’m just a little worried I have to much lighting, any helpful advice and tips would be appreciated.

Question by : i have a 10 gallon aquarium and im going to plant it. what are good beginner plants, and essential equipment?
what are recommended straights, driftwood, co2 injection, ect…. Im on a budget but not to tight.

Best answer:

Answer by undercoverbabe911
Co2 inject. is not needed, they are expenses and are for experts. What you need is Eco finish subtrate for your live plants. Fluorescent light (15W bulb). Filter. I’ve never tried driftwood so you’ll have to lookk into it. Some good plants are java ferns, anubis, swords. Make sure the tank is cycled.
