Hi folks I'm new here but have been in the hobby for many years.
I have always wanted a truly planted aquarium and have been in the process of setting up a 72Bow for this system.
So far I have the tank, an Eheim 2217, fluorite substrate, and 4 65W 67K power compacts for a total of 260W.
Do I need more light? What is recommended for this deep a tank?
I'm really looking for any ideas on this CO2 system.

Complete C02 system w pH controller
Fully automated system
This system includes the AB regulator, the Milwaukee SMS122 pH controller, and the Power reactor.
A pH controller regulates the C02 by the pH. The more C02 you add to the water, the lower the pH goes. By using a pH controller, the C02 is shut off once the target pH is reached and turned back on again when the pH rises. This way you can maintain a very stable C02 level without worrying about overdosing.

I see AB is a sponsor here and I was wondering if anyone is using one of these?
Can you give me some opinions? Is there something better I should look into?
Also any suggestions on fish and plants are also welcome. I was thinking Neon, Rasboras, Cory cats, farawellas, ahhh I'm still undecided on fish.
I just filled the tank last night and I'm eager to get things going.
Thanks in advance,
sharks
