So my tank has been running for about 18 months, and for the first year I attempted to house live plants. These were a selection of the easier plants to keep alive - swords, grasses (sorry I can't remember their actual names but people on here gave me advice to try them).
I purchased quite a few from eBay, my LFS and they all eventually ended up dying, or starting to go brown and rot.
I would like to try again but can anyone give me any pointers in how I can keep these plants better?
My tanks is 100cm x 40 x 30
PH is 7.5, amonia and nitrites at 0. My water is very hard. I have one 20W T8 light.
Current stock:
- 2 x Angelfish
- 3 x Molly
- 4 x Red fin tetra
- 1 x Catfish
- 1 x Small plec
Any advice would be appreciated.
