I always worry about the base of the substrate and oxygen circulation in it. The colder countries still can afford to use substrate heater to circulate the water, but it seems to be quite a challenge in our climate. =/

That is precisely the reason why I used Power Sand because my previous scapes all had serious gravel issues just after a few months, small tanks have so little room for error.

actually for our climate, we still need a heater as it is used to keep the substrate warm, most of us just assume that just because the climate is warm,the substrate will be warm enough. But having said that, I do not use a heater myself

My plan this time was to save up and then get the best I can reasonably afford now as my tank have always been on my desk in my bedroom so I wanted them to look good. All those months of waiting has paid off, equipment is always like that, you pay for what you get!

From what I've read, using a heater to warm the substrate has fallen out of favour even with the Europeans and American scapers but I dun know the reason why, maybe not so effective.
