Aquarium Co2 Kit
please help with aquarium plant questions?
Please someone experienced help me with a couple of questions i have about live plants.i have a 25 gallon long tank 15 inches high and 24 inches long (stocked with a dwarf blue gourami, 1 black tetra, 5 neon tetras, 2 bumblebee gobies,a snail and 3 oto cats) the current set-up is very peaceful and i do not want to disturb it. Is it possible to remove my old ornaments and fake plants and insert live ones? also which type of plant is good for the tank i have? i also saw that CO2 is quite pricey at aquarium stores so i looked up a do-it-yourself CO2 kit and i have the materials http://www.kwas.ca/Articles/article3.pdf that is the link to the article. Do you know if it will work? i also have a 15 watt lighting system is that too little or too much? i really want to add live plants and am willing to put the effort in. if you can answer all my questions i’ll give you the best awnser and 5 stars… thanks in advance
You can put different types of plants in their.
anubias nana
aponogeton
water sprite
java moss
duckweed
amazon sword
You do not have sufficient lighting.
I would recommend you to have 2.0 – 3.0 watts per gallon ideally speaking.
You can remove your ornaments without any territory problems.
I would suggest you not to get a co2 kit now but maybe once the plants have settled due to ph inbalance that is likely going to happen and will result in dead fish or sick fish.
