Live Plants/betta Tank Journal..

[Sahira]

Hi all!!

I have just made an order for:


Fine Black Aquarium Gravel 2.5kg
Tropica 1-2 Grow Limnophila sessiliflora Live Plants
Tropica 1-2 Grow Hygrophila pol Rosanervig Live Plants
Tropica 1-2 Grow Glossostigma Elatinoides Live Plants
Tropica 1-2 Grow Myriophyllum mattogrossense Live Plants
Tropica 1-2 Grow Bacopa caroliniana Live Plants
Hobby Planting Tweezers - 20cm
TetraPlant Complete Substrate 2.8kg
Poster Background 3D Rock 49cm

due to be delivered on Tuesday..

I have a spare 35 litre tank, heater & filter and I want to build a beautiful live planted tank... and then when the plants have grown, I eventually want to add a single male betta

The tank will be heavily planted, so will i still need to use a filter? (i have a brand new fluval u1 still packed, and eventually plan to use the the media from my community tank into the fluval filter) but i am thinking if its heavly planted will i even need to even use a filter?...

I will put this tank in my room as i already have a rio 125 in our main living room

I will update with pictures as plants/substrate should arrive by tuesday (ordered from warehouse aquatics)

Here is a pic of the tank...

Is that an Arcadia? Nice tanks.
If you're going to have a Betta, then yes, you will need a filter & heater
