Plant wise there are about 50-60 types of plant pretty much every thing I can get my hands on in Australia. Including lots of java moss and riccia which I'm trying to cover the bottom of the tank with.
Tank Size:
148 gallons
Advice:
1. Never buy one of any fish! (with a few exceptions)
2. Seperate the plants you buy try cut the end of each stem in different ways plant them in different areas (shaded no not shaded) and just look and see what works the do that with all the stems, works for me.
3. Try to create as many hiding spots and different types of environment as possible, you're fish will love you for it.
4. Read as much as you can and not just from one place.
5. Pre-plan as best you can then adapt as you go along nature has a habit of doing what ever it whats.
6. try and keep the tank as died leaf free as possible.
6. Enjoy!
