I need some substrate... I was planning to use Fluorite but I'll wait and get some of the GLA new substrate.

So do you actually have a storefront like AFA where you can buy rocks and everything you need for Planted Tanks?

Looks cool! What size tank is that and how many bag(s) of the soil did you use?

I never did take a photo of the brown soil substrate, but this is it in this photo. Grain size is a little smaller compared to black...

Keep in mind there are Tannins in the water...
