Need ideas for 1ft tank

OhMyHoly · 21-10-2014, 04:32 AM

Hi all, currently have 1ft tank at office. only with soil & external filter. Thought of making it a light planted tank with cherry barbs. need ideas on the plant as I am not familiar with plants?

You can go Seaview and take a look.. They have a wide variety of plants..

Low tech plants would be good.

Like anubis

nanas or mosses would be good.

C328 also good selection of plants.

Hmm.. Heres my setup. Not sure if I get the correct plants.. But so far no casualty

From what I know the red plants are not true aqua plants
So they may die easy. But you did a good job on the set up brp

Thanks for the information! I didn't know its not a true freshwater plant. However so far only 1 casualty(1 flying shrimp). Added yellow shrimp. Plants still growing, hope cherry or yellow shrimp start breeding

well done for first attempt...
maybe you can group all the same plans together instead of having one stalk here and there..
think you need to plant more and also maybe add some foreground plants like hair grass or monte carlo
