    Hi there,

    I'm looking to start a planted tank. Looking for everything I need! Would like something pretty like ADA but i'm open to anything!

    Anyone selling a complete CO2 setup? OR can point me in the right direction where I could find all the gear etc I need?

    Cheers!

    Matt

    Hi Matt ... maybe update your profile with location then somebody in the area can contribute.
    What size are we talking about?

    Thanks Ferdie.

    I've kept freshwater before, as well as reef tanks. The planted (CO2) type tanks look like a challenge i'd like to try!

    Actually went past Jungle Aquatics today. Seems like they primarily sell Innovative Marine tanks? Quite Pricey...

    You can always get a custom tank build ... if you can not track down some ADA glass ...

    I listed some of the LFS's that I use here http://www.tropicalaquarium.co.za/threads/id-needed.27783/#post-350536

    AE will design and build if needed. Lifestyle has some tanks on the floor .. if you absolutely must have an ADA tank as in the glass, reach out to Sean at http://www.theplantedtank.co.za/index.php/contact-us he will have a handle who might still have some glass in SA.

    BTW CO2 planted is easier than you might think .. the lack of getting refills in our area is a bit of a bugger .. I still use transfire but that is a drive and they only operate during the week.
