Anyone who wants to grow anything in a tank should read this incredible book: "Ecology of the planted aquarium" by Diana Walstad.
If you don't know what aquascaping is about, try googling "Takashi Amano" and just browse through the pictures you find. I'd guarantee you would dream about creating something like that. And that hobby truly is fascinating. However it's for brave tinkerers and tenacious explorers.

Ecology of the Planted Aquarium by Diana Walstad

Ahh, as a hobbyist amateur Aquascaper I like articles like this.

If anyone wants to learn how to get a great planted tank with minimal maintenance. I suggest Diana Walstad's book "Ecology of the Planted Aquarium". A beginner will easily get amazing success with this method (though it doesn't last forever and a year or two later this will start to break down).
