Also can anyone recommend me aquarium lights idk what kind to buy i do have one but its kinda weak
Also anyone know how to cycle i watched some videos but the products they use are expensive here

Planning to make a 2ft tank with shrimps and small fish

Any comments or advise is appreciated
not familiar w Putrajaya. A few good aquascape shop in Shah Alam/Subang
you are beginner have limited budget- then better don't do a 2 ft tank.
The cost of filter, lights, soil etc gonna be very expensive.
Might as well spend RM 120 for a 40 cm cube tank.
Light i use Maagoo- approx RM 100
would need a filter- say Dophon CF 600 ( don't use 300, it is undersize)
For cycling of tank? don't really need to spend.
Just set up the tank with soil and hardscape, and plant. then run filter and change water frequently for 2 weeks
some people use bac-starter, but yes, it cost money.
just let the bacterial to grow naturally ba.
if you have another aged tank, can bring the old filter there as well.
