    Hello everybody, I'm new to the aqua scaping world and very excited. What im looking for is to make my tank as beautiful as I can.

    I have a 30 gallon tank with a coral life T5HO double strip. One 10k 31watt bulb and one 6700k 31 watt bulb.

    Marineland 200 rated for 50 gallons - will change if nessecary.

    I'm not sure what c02 tank to get. Could i buy that Turbo C02 system, which is rated for 40 gallons? Amazon.com: Turbo CO2 Bio System: Kitchen & Dining

    I want a tank thats similiar to these feautures including woods, rocks etc:

    For planted tanks it is advisible to use pressurised canister co2 with a solenoid to regulate the bubbles per second. Also it is favourable to keep planted tank at cool temp of around 26 degrees. A balance of fertilization, lights and co2 and a strong biological filtration is recommended.

    As for the plant id it is hairgrass
