Hi all
Boight my first (second hand) tank a few days ago, I got a fluval roma 125. The plan is to keep tropical fish. Was sold to me with the Fluval 206 filter amongst a few other bits
I'm deciding whether to go planted on non planted, I can see the substarte for planted is quite dear but many recommend organic potting soil, I see the planted needs the lights on for much longer so will altogether likely "cost" more over time etc. But then on the flip note I hear a planted aquarium creates a much better environment for the fish.. True?
Would love to here some ideas, as I'm new to it I don't want to jump in the deep end and make mistakes, my first concern is the health and wellbeing of the fish over looks etc.
Best.l,
Hosh
