I wasnt refering to the whole thread, rather how you would recomend a planted tank be setup. You have already given some pretty good information in regards to a template (as was requested). Information I might add that is not being readily followed as of yet. Of particular note:
Stocking densities in a planted tank are typically 1/2 that of thier BB equivalent
QT is critical, once a planted tank is diseased, it's too late.
A tank of at least 100 gallons is strongly recomened (you need this size to accomodate a small group of five discus, smaller groups don't do well).
C02 injection at a minimum
Additional water filtration methods would be helpful to achieve a higher level of success.
As to your 2-3 month no fish QT of the planted tank (after diseased), not sure if that would suffice, or be practical (over that of a complete start over replacing all plants and substrate) but that is a question maybe a noted resident biologist might be able to comment on.
Ok, now, would all planted tank enthusiast (other than you Chad) that have met these standards or come close and, have posted to this thread please stand up?
