I think I decided to do my 75g tank as a planted tank. I've been looking at T5 fixtures, and my understanding, t5 is a more "intense" light then what I've used in the past (power compacts). I was looking at a dual bulb 48" setup with 2 54w 6700k lights. I'm trying to stay away from having to go co2 on this tank. The main plants I want to use in this tank are the various forms of Vals, Green Cabomba, Ludwigia and Rotala Indica.
I am planning to finish stocking it with a few Angelfish, nice group of Clown Loaches and a few more of what I got in there now (I'm drawing a total blank at this time!).-
I am looking at this to be a overly planted tank. Just want my fish in this tank to have good places to hide among real plants and not the ole fake ones I have in there now.
Would I be safe w/o co2. I know I'd have to figure out a trace dose chart.
Is there anything important I am leaving out that I need to address?
