I am starting a FM tank and have found the answers to most of my questions (including water, care, tank size, etc.). But one thing I can't seem to find a definitive answer about is how to set up the tank. As in, live plants? What size / kinda substrate? How many plants? How many caves? Should the tank have more free swim space compared to hiding space? Or should there be more hiding space compared to free swim? If live plants, I've never done that before, what is the best kind and how do I plant them, etc.? Driftwood?

Any advice on the inside set up would be great! Thanks in advance!
