Hey! I am a newbie to planted tanks but recently I’ve been researching some low tech plants to include in my aquarium. I currently have two plants and am using the Seachem Flourite brown natural substrate. My question is: is this an okay option? My plants so far haven’t seemed to stay in the substrate very well (but I also haven’t anchored them to anything) so I am wondering if some finer gravel/sand/soil would be better, especially since I am thinking about getting a carpeting plant and am worried how well it will stay in my current substrate. Another option I’ve seen is combining two different types of soils and substrates together. Is that a good idea? I am open to any tips too!
In summary: does anybody have any opinions on the Seachem Flourite brown natural substrate or suggestions for better substrate options? (specially one that works well with low tech plants and/or carpeting plants)
Thanks so much!!
