Well I had a spare 29g tank and some equipment laying around so I decided to do a planted tank. Always wanted to try one, been in fw fish keeping for 20yrs now and sw for the last 5yrs. The setup is a 29 gallon tank, pine stand and 150w aquamedic metal halide. Plumbing is a hydor pro canister filter with 8w aqua uv, coralife ph monitor/controller with 5lb co2 and Milwaukie regulator with an inline diffuser. I'm probably going to find a different light for it but for the time being its what I have, just hope it will do ok? I decided to use miracle grow organic potting soil with a cap of eco complete. manzanita branch driftwood with pagoda rock that had.
