Fish Crazy
Hi, I am wondering what I need if anything extra for good plant growth, the tank is 1.2m wide "Jewel Vision 260" and has a High Lite unit (as they call it) it has two full width lamps 1047mm and both are rated at 54w - I also have the Jewel reflectors which apparently double the lighting.
I want to grow decent plants but don't know about food, CO2 or lighting required etc.
I don't want a tank full of plants as I like my fishies so it needs to be a good mix.
Just checked around and found that it gives me approx 4wpg so the lighting is ok - but what about food/nutrients - please don't quote chemicals as I don't have a clue
Please advise.
Paul.
