Hi everyone,
I am new to this site although it does seem very informative already. Have packed in keeping/breeding discus to get into apistogrammas.Wondered if i posted my proposed set-up you could give it the once over.
1. Tank- choose of two 36x12x15 or 21x16x16. Idea is to house a pair or harem with a few tetras.
2. Filter- external with a bit of sponge to reduce output flow. UV stralizer connected.
3. Water-ro remineralised.Temperature ?
4. Lighting- dennerle special plant lights
5. Substrate- dennerle deponit covered with quartz gravel ,probably black. Undersoil heating cable
6. Others- fully planted with co2 unit
7. Fish- sugestions from everyone welcome but i am a bit worried that tank with smaller floor space could be a problem with some species with regards to territory.
8. books- can someone suggest a good one with nice pics. and various water parameters for differing species.
