Hi,
I'm setting up a new tank and wanted to know if what I needed to add to the base. I want to use natural sand but will be planted so do i need plant substrate as a bottom layer with sand on top? If so what sort of depth do you think for each? Also if both how will that effect cleaning with say a siphon cleaner, will it not just mix them all up? Do i need both substrate and sand? Any advice will be great.
Thanks.
