in am planning a 38 al paludarium and was wondering what plats i could use
it will have basic lighting and 2 bog areas , stream and a water fall.

the aprx water volume will be about 16 gals and a 15 or 8 gal sump not decided yet . i was thinking mud skippers in there but again i am not sure yet

i will be using slate , sand stone and river pebles in the tansk and if needed use fert sticks liquid ferts and even a substrate like eco complete in the bog areas i could try co2 but at a later date . i was looikng to use a similar system to this tank ( http://www.aquariacentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=118697&highlight=paludarium )with the suspended land as i like the idea of having more swimming space for other fish if i choose to have them and if i can keep them with skippys ( if i get them )

pretty much the only thing i know how to do is the sump lol and anyone who knows me knows all my tanks have sumps as i hate clutter

all ideas questions and problems i havent for seem are welcome

Do you mean plants for the land or ones that live in the water? Is this going to be a brackish setup or freshwater? That will help determine what plants can live in the water.
