Planting an established freshwater aquarium
Posted: Tue May 25, 2010 2:10 pm
I have recently added some plants to my 75 gallon established aquarium, which is stocked with several fish. I do not want to break it down to add the appropriate substrate for plants, so I am trying to find out what is the best way to add the nutrients that plants require so that I can create a tank that is healthy both for fish and plants alike.
I have seen the live substrate that is sold at the pet stores, but I don't think I can add that to my tank because I already have gravel on the bottom. My fish stressed when I moved them to the tank, so I don't want to take them out and stress them again.
Any helpful advice would be greatly appreciated!
