I'm making a 75 i own into a low tech dirted tank. This will be my first attempt at a dirted tank and I'd like some advice on how to make this plan work.
lighting is a marineland 6500k t12, no CO2 system
dirt is rinsed (dechlorinated water) organic potting soil, going for approximately 1 inch layer
planning to cover dirt with approximately 0.5-1 inch of sand and fine gravel
filtration is an aquaclear 110 and aquaclear 70
plants will all be relatively low maitenance, eg java fern, crypts etc...
water ph is between approx 7.8
stock plan is various rainbowfish
