After having issues with my last build I broke it down. I learned a lot from that build that will help in this build.
I don't have a tank yet but I am looking for something in the 29 to 45 gallon range. I will use about an inch or 2 of soil with an inch of somewhat coarse sand on top for substrate. I will also put some rock on top of the sand layer. Hopefully this configuration will prevent me from getting into the soil layer when planting cuttings or plants that have root balls already.
Right now I have a 6 gallon tank and a 2.5 gallon. I am using those to breed ghost shrimp and mts. I also started some small greenwater cultures. I should have a tank within the next few weeks. By the time I get the tank and build a stand for it I should have some greenwater ready for ghost shrimp larvae. I am going to start an infusoria culture soon both for said larvae and for breeding neon tetras or guppies.
