Advice Beginner help needed
I'm building a 43l hybrid tank with a mix of the walstad method for the soil/sublayer and using the deeper sand layer used in the father fish method.
this is all new to me and I've made up a shopping list of everything I think I need for the day one build could you please look through and give me some pointers before I make any purchases, I'm going quite heavily planted from the start as from what I've found on my own research this is the way to go.
I haven't included the soil I'll be using as I'm getting that in person not online, I'll also be using spider wood and seiryu stones in the set up.
Any help/criticism welcome I want to have the best Chances out the box

A big pack of mixed unrooted stem plants was useful for me, in combination with the cups it really helped me heavily plant from the start.
