I just bought some of this stuff about 3 days ago, got a clump about the size of a quarter in diameter and I split it into about 4 smaller clumbs and just shoved it down into the gravel, the guy who sold it to me (1.99) told me to float a few on the top of my tank, and when it produces some roots then to plant them, so I left a few stems up there floating about...I'll let you know what happens with them
I hope I get the same luck you guys have!!
My tank:
4x48" bulbs, pressurized CO2 system and dosing with Florish Iron/Potassium/trace, occassionaly root tabs, water change 15-20% every week or two
Tank mates:
3 siamese algae eaters
2 false siamese algae eaters
3 ottos
1 11" rope fish
1 3" discus
1 7" black ghost knife.
soon to add a small contingent of ghost shrimp (15-30)
and maybe 3-4 flying foxes
Pics coming soon.
PS-I have a nasty case of beard algae...anything to be done about that? got it before I added extra lighting and CO2, now can't get rid of it
