Things needed for nano planted tank?

DancingBetta · 08-30-2007, 07:19 PM

I may be getting a nano-planted tank and I need a list of things to buy for it (besides a tank, plants, and gravel.) I have fertilizer, CO2 and high-light actinic flouresent bulbs on the list. Anything else?

Actinic03 is all but useless in planted tanks. What you will need will depen on the plants you want to keep. There is no set list.

What kind of lighting should I get then that i can easily find at Petco or petsmart?

Again, lighting and setup will depend on the plants you want to keep.
