im intrested in creating a lawn effect in my tank/ future tank any ideas as to....

  • the best plant to use,
  • how to get it to grow,
  • its needs and its effect on the tank ie how to clean waste once its established,
  • and will it sit well with bottom feeders, like kuhli loaches and catfish
  • and is there any way of creating this effect with out CO2???

cheers laura.

Hi Laura

 

I use Riccia to make a 'carpet' for my shrimp tanks. I don't use all the fancy netting and wire, I lay some Riccia over a pebble and cover it with netting, I use one of those body scrub things cost 99p, stretch a peice over the Riccia and pebble and it grows fast and so lush.

Don't know if you can get it in Oz, but ebay may have some, or Aqua Essentials sell it.
