    Best substrate for plants?

    I also have an air pump and a bubbler, that'll definitely work right? Just making sure

    Best substrate for plants?

    No, about a month ago I tried out a Green Terror because he seemed really docile, and he mangled a couple of my angels. He was gone right after that. I already took the oscar out as well.

    Best substrate for plants?

    Just the one. Maybe if I'm lucky I can get a small tank for cheap tomorrow to put my fish in for a couple hours max while I scoop out the substrate and put the sand in. It's not ideal, but it's the best option I can think of. The only other option is leaving the fish in there while I do it...

    Best substrate for plants?

    I actually somehow lost my kit, that had all my strips in it. I ordered a new one though, and it’s gonna be here tomorrow so I’ll be able to tell you then. All I can tell you right now is the temperature, sorry.

    Best substrate for plants?

    Oh my bad lol Yeah I don’t have another tank so that might be the only option.. I’ve done a bit of research but it seems like that’s the only thing you can do so idk

    So should I return the gouramis and get something else? Or is it okay? My gouramis haven't shown any hostility towards the angels, the gouramis just chase each other from time to time.

    Best substrate for plants?

    I only have a pleco, so I'm pretty sure it's okay for him from what I have read. Oh. I was told that angels and gouramis were fine together. I even talked to a couple people on this forum and they told me it was fine. My bad, I should've done my own research. I used to have 6 angels, but then I...

    Best substrate for plants?

    Ah okay, so just plain water. Thank you. I actually did some research on my fish (4x angels, 3x gouramis, 8x danios, 4x guppies) and turns out that the angels and danios prefer fine sand. Obviously this sand isn't very fine, but will that cause any problems with my fish?

    Best substrate for plants?

    Is there anything specific I should wash it in? I was thinking of just water, but if theres some chemical or something that I should put in there too then let me know

    Would this sand work? https://www.homedepot.com/p/Quikrete-50-lb-Quikrete-Premium-Play-Sand-111351/206363630 I would obviously clean it before putting it in my tank, but is that good enough? A lot of aquarium sand is just insanely expensive since I have a 75 gal tank, so paying $15 for 20 lbs of...

    Best substrate for plants?

    Ah okay good. I was already thinking of getting sand I just wanted to make sure that everyone else had good experiences with it first. Just on the topic of looks, do you think light sand or dark sand make the tank appear more natural?

    Best substrate for plants?

    I've looked around a bit and found multiple different substrates that are "the best for growing plants" but I haven't seen like a definitive one that every person uses. What, in your guys opinion, is the best substrate to grow plants in? I'm looking to switch my tank to a planted tank so advice...

    Flowerhorn

    The only problem is I'm trying to save as much money as I can, and the deals for anything higher than a 55 gallon drain extremely quickly. Of course if I can get a good deal on a bigger tank I'll take it, but currently a 55 gallon for me sounds good. The flowerhorn (which is in the store) is...

    Flowerhorn

    Thanks for your advice, but didn’t you put a flowerhorn into a tank with a bunch of other fish and that was the cause of most of your problems? My flowerhorn is going to be alone from the time he’s put into the tank to the time he dies.
