Introduction
This is my first attempt at a planted aquarium, so I began with a 20 gallon long tank and easy to grow plants. I added DIY CO2 (citric acid and baking soda) at approximately 1 bubble per second, and most of the plants seem to be growing in quite well. I have three 100w CFL bulbs with reflector hoods for lighting.
