Posted by: johnthebaptist at Wed Mar 3 22:15:21 2010 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by johnthebaptist ] i am brand new to aquariums and would like my first tank to be planted. i have been doing loads of research for weeks. i have decided to start an aquarium without live plants just to get a little experience with some hardy fish. my question is. is it possible to set something up and ADD live plants at a later time? also what is a good substrate to use if you plan on doing that. any advice? i heard internal filters like my whisper 30 are not good for planted tanks. is it ok to use until i buy an external canister filter and just replace it? or will i loose too much bacteria if i do that?
