hi...just getting back into discus after many yrs away. i'm in the process of setting up a 6by2by2 tank...aquapro2400 and an olderfluval 403.lighting is 2 6ft flouro t8 tubes- 1aquaglo and 1 grolux. will be planting a few low light plants, no co2, plenty of fertiliser...does this seem enough for you guys

Mate tank sounds good, however with low light and no CO2 ferts wont do you much good at all, besides that most low light plants are slow(er) growing. You could save the money on ferts and buy more nice fish. also if you used a life glo2 instead of the aquaglow your tank wont have such a strong pink tinge to it. make sure You post photos.
