Determining how much substrate to buy for your new aquarium depends on the size and shape of your tank, as well as the depth of the substrate bed you wish to achieve. Another factor is the type of aquascaping structure you're planning.
The sheer number of factors required for plant growth and health may seem daunting at first; however, we can broadly classify these factors into three categories: substrates, pH/hardness, and supplements.
Some plants draw nutrients through their roots while others draw nutrients through
their leaves. Therefore, the two basic delivery methods of supplementing plant nutrients are substrate fertilization and liquid fertilization. Learn more here.
