You can use the orchid bark mix theat HD has. It doesn't have any fetilizer in it. They also have some organic soil that is ok to use.

You can also go to a pet store and get a block of terrarium "soil". It doesn't look like much, as it is only the size of a brick, but it expands a lot in water. You can also mix some peat moss in with it if you like. Fran

I am cleaning a 55 gallon tank that I had salt water fish in. Your set up is awsome. Being a beginer how much did it all this cost you? Im curious, Im starting to prepare my shopping list for my tank. How long did it take you to set it up? Thanks for the pics

the irish and scotch "moss" aernt really moss and will quickly liquefy in there, I would recccomend taking it out now while you can and getting some real moss
