I am in the process of setting up a 65 Gal planted aquarium and in doing research, I've read that using manure compost for a 2" -3" base (such as "Black Kow" from your local home improvement stores) with a top layer of sand is great for freshwater planted aquariums. Does anyone have any experience with this or know of any issues with using manure compost as a substrate? I will have a biowheel 400 filter with a XP canister filter and 2 - 96W PC lights.
Thanks in advance,
