I set up a new plants-only "farm" tank! No fish, no pests, no snails, just a pretty garden of aquatic plants. Why? I need a place to grow out all my trimmings and keep plants healthy for when I use them in my projects!
Fertilizer is a key part of my setup, I go over what that is and how I do it.
I mention a lot of things, here are links:
