QUOTE(rySse @ Apr 8 2009, 01:07 PM) hi all, just wanna ask for suggestion, what brand of lights should i get for my planted aquarium? i wanted to plant grass... i have two lights, but it kept on spoiled and waste a lot of my money to buy new ballast and also the fluorescent lamp. So, what brand is the best? my tank size is : depend on what type of plant u wanto plant...and the availability of co2 syetem？types of co2 system? doses of fertilizer...length : 50cm Width : 34 cm Height : 35cm thanksa lot This post has been edited by tenchi0205: Apr 8 2009, 01:22 PM |

1st what size of thank you want? nano 1feet, 2feet, 3 feet, 4 feet?
then will choose the filtration system? hang on back (for nano), canister for bigger tank size lighting that depend on what type of plant you want to plant in your tank and the size of your tank...Fluorescent lighting(PLL, T5, PL), halogen, Metal Halide Lighting...need to consider the Wattage, Lumens and Kelvin Rating * Low lighting-Cryptocorynes, Java Fern, Java Moss * Medium lighting-Sagittaria, Echinodorus * High lighting-Cabomba, Salvinia, Lemma CO2 system...if have the cash get a pressurized CO2 with electric regulator (RM300-400) or cheaper method is DIY CO2...but cant handle high demand plant Substrate...ADA product+ADA 5 beauties （ADA Penac W， ADA Penac P， ADA Bacter 100， ADA Clear Super，ADA Tourmaline BC）or Holland sand (cheaper way) Fertilizer...root fert and liquid fert for the leaf Temperature...no money can DIY cooling fan with PC casing fan+adapter or buy a chiller...plant stay healthy at range 25 degree to 28 degree...or get a air con for it like some sifu does hehehe... scraping materiel...driftwood (mangrove root/jati wood), stone (lava stone and all sort of it...) scraping style...Dutch style, Nature Aquarium (or Japanese) style, Iwagumi-style or own style... fauna...fish? shrimp? snail? flora...foreground/mid ground/back ground This post has been edited by tenchi0205: Apr 10 2009, 03:41 PM |
