How to Set Up a Planted Aquarium - Live Plants for Beginners

How to setup a planted fish aquarium starts with understanding what live plants demand. There are a handful of major differences that you have to change about a regular fish aquarium to grow live plants. The first step to setting up a aquarium with live. Plants is to use a low flowing filter. The sponge filter is the most common type to use in a planted aquarium. the reason we use a sponge filter is because live plants do not like a lot of flow in the fish tank.

Choosing a decent quality light for your planted aquarium is also a huge deal. Make sure that you purchase an aquarium light designed for live plants. This is usually a light in the color spectrum between 6000 K to 7000 K. I also advise that you hang the aquarium light between 6 to 10 inches above the tank. This helps spread the lighting across all of the plants in the aquarium. And it ensures that the plants don’t get too much lighting and possibly burned.
