Cool re:how did you find APC?

I found this forum by doing a search on aquarium plants.Found a BILLION , chose this one. I also chose plant geek.
I'm new to the planted tank hobby;although I've had fish tanks off & on for a number of years.I was so tired of rocks & caves(hate plastic & silk plants).So I thought I would try live plants.
Started out with Elodia(?annachorus?),horn wort,java moss,and crypt-bronze.
Well,I found out that elodea needs TONS of light,Eclipse 6 just doesn't cut it!
Horn wort grows like a weed(anybody need some).
Java moss is messy and clogs filters & plants.
My crypts are slow growers and stay green.

I've also added 3 tanks-30 long planted,
-27 hex,
-10gallon

Thanks. Um yeah. I was doing all sorts of searching on DIY CO2 and aquatic plants after I saw a planted tank at my LFS. I'm still working on scaping my 10 gal.
