Hello,
I am new in the aquatic world, it was always my dream to have an aquarium... I just got a tank and I will definitely be very pleased if I can get a little bit of help .
So far I ve got a tank 48x16x19, I know it is big for a beginner but the deal was good.
lava rocks
sand from western pump 40 lb
I build the stand too...
My plan : Find some gravel substrate and mix them with the sand, also put a top layer of fine gravel
Setup the rock, and ad the water, half of the tank and wait two weeks to put plants inside
Ad the rest of the water, use the filtration system ( Aquaclear 70)
Wait a month, setup the heater and get Mollies fish to start.
I will be glad if I can get some opinions on this plan, I also apology for my English, It is not my first language.
I wish you a good night and to fulfill your aquariums dream !
Best regards
Manu
