Hey Everyone,
I'm new on here and I would like a bit of advice. I currently have a 60l tank set up. The picture is below.
At the moment I have ludwigia repens, Anubias barteri var. nana, vallis, some java moss and an unknown plant (I think another anubias species). I have some hygrophilia polysperma, java fern and pygmy chain swords on order from an online plant shop which will be planted next week.
My fish are:
Pair of bredding Kribs
1 x male dwarf gourami
2 x neon tetra
3 x guppies
4 x black phantom tetra
2 x oto's
3 x japonica shrimp
I have still have the standard light fitted that came with the set up, it is an 18" 15W T8 light.
I was planning on concentrating on the planted side of things and was wondering if it would be worth upgrading the lights and maybe getting some CO2 equipment? How would I upgrade the lights as my hood only has space for 1 light? My vallis doesn't seem to be growing at all and I wondered if this was due to lack of light.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
