I'm looking to set up my first planted tank. The dimensions areĀ Ā 60 (w) x 30 (d) x 30 (h) and it is a 54l tank.Ā I planning on eventually having a betta and some corys in it. I know all about cycling, I already have an established 65l tank but it's got plastic plants. I have a couple of questions about setting it up.
Ā
What kind of substrate should I be using?
Ā
I have access to both hard and soft water, which would be best for a relatively low light tank?
Ā
What kind of plants can I have in a low light tank?
Ā
I live in a part of Australia with strict quarantine laws so buying fish/plants online is troublesome. I'm pretty restricted with what kinds of plants I can buy and I only have access to one pet shop though they may be able to order in something specific for me (like my betta).
Ā
Any help would be appreciated.
