I just ordered a new light fixture for my 75 gallon, not the greatest, but they're better than what I've got sitting on my tank right now.
They're double T5 lights, 108 watts, 2 x 6700 k whatever that means.
I'm looking to get some quick(er) growing plants than my java ferns and anubias, that grow tall to fill up the back of my tank.
The fish I've got now are:
1 Jack Dempsey
1 Green Terror
1 Convict
10 Australian Rainbow Fish
1 Bristlenose Pleco
3 Raphael Catfish
1 Featherfin Squeaker
pH is about 7.6, water temp 76-78, looking for more low tech plants, I dose with liquid fertilizers whenever I remember to, so low tech plants are appreciated.
So far the only things I've really looked into are wisteria and hornwort, but I haven't been diving all too deep either. Would these two plants be okay with the cichlids? What other plants would work for the set-up? thanks much.
