@IMaqua

Well mostly it's just money. Usually I order plants that are that week on discount or use some of the plants I have in my extra holding tanks. But I like your idea, I did something similar in one of my future builds (but wood is out of the water).

@IMaqua
@IMaqua Год назад
I always start with 7. I found out that's enough for most of the low maintenance plants. If needed I will increase to 8. Only aquariums where I have a longer light duration are: Hillstream aquarium (10 hours) where I grow algae on purpose and Walstad aquarium (12 hours) where I have a lot of plant mass.
