Hi All,
Belated happy new year.
I have a 210L aquarium with the following fish:
- Hi fin swordtail
- 10 x rummy nose tetra
- 5 x diamond head tetra
- 2 x siamese algae eaters
I would like to completely rescape using wood / rocks and new plants. I only have a single plant that grows low covering 50% of the floor at the moment. I was given a lot of bad advice from aquarium stores at the beginning and it took a lot of learning to understand how to get a safe stable cycled tank. Thankfully that was over a year ago... but now I would like to change its aesthetics.
How would you guys go about doing this? I am worried of course about harming the fish by scraping up the old gravel and releasing a lot of bad nasties into the water (no substrate) and rescaping the tank.
Any ideas or information would be appreciated.
