Hi all,
I consider myself a newbie to the aquarium. I have started off with a 14" tank. It is currently in the midst of cycling. I intend to keep a planted aquarium. Below are the data for my tank:
I have the following queries:
1. I have had comments that the way to start a planted aquarium is to begin with plants and no fishes. I was told that it would be difficult to convert my current setup to a planted aquarium? How can I go about it?
2. What would be a suitable aquatic plant to begin with?
3. Do I add in plant in stages?
4. Would PL lighting of 11 W be sufficient for my tank size?
5. Should I be using a different filter?
6. Will I need to add in more gravel?
I'll appreciate all comments/criticism. Thanks all!
