Hello,
What would be the easiest setup for requiring no CO2 or ferts or hopefully no soil?
Currently I have 10 gallon with 10 tetras that was supposed to be planted, but all plants die. Marimo moss balls, crypts. I tried dwarf hairgrass at one point it died. I had some sort of stem platns they died. I have lots of green algae that wipes away easily. The soil is a laeyr of sand over eco-complete. The bulbs are 2 12W CFLs... They are on for 8 hours a day. I tried 20W before and got too much algae and tried hjaving lights on longer and got too much algae.
The nly thing that stays alive is anubias nano, which grow lots of algae on the leaves. They have loght colored leaves that cluster densely. They dont really grow much.
Is there an easier way to do things.
Thank you,
