[GSAS-Member] New 20 gal: looking for foreground plants; also, cannister filter brand tips?

["Matt Staroscik" <matt@wrongcrowd.com>]

I am redoing my 20 long with turface substrate and I need some kind of nice
and easy-ish foreground covering. Lighting will be T-5 tubes, 4 x 18W. If
that proves to be too much without CO2, I'll just remove a bulb or two as
needed... or go CO2. But in the past I haven't been able to keep anything
doing well with less light, so I am trying *more* and a shorter photoperiod.


While I like planted tanks I am not a plant person, and all I want is
something easy to grow that looks decent. If you are pruning something good
in the near future... Please let me know.

Also, cannister filters came up recently but I don't recall any conclusions
being reached. If you have a preference for a brand that is a good deal, or
feelings on a brand to avoid, please LMK. I'm price sensitive on this one,
if it doesn't seem like a good deal I will stick with HOBs on the 20 gal
tank.

Thanks!
