Hey guys. Went to the store today to pick up a piece of driftwood and some more Cardinal Tetras (I only have four now since two died from being sucked into the filter) and an Oto or two. Well, the bad weather here in NY delayed a lot of their shipments, so they were low on stock on tons of fish. I didn't drive 25 minutes for nothing, so I had a look at their plants. I was able to ID the Crypt that I last purchased (lucens), and almost thought of buying another one but the Baby Tears caught my attention. I didn't know anything about them, so I asked one of the employees and the owner if they do well under low light. The employee said he believed they did, and the owner said it shouldn't be a problem as he has them grown in low light in the store. So, I purchased it...it was too lush and nice, and it was only like $2.50, so whatever. I remembered reading about it on a low light list, but upon doing research when I came home I see that there is mixed info on it. Some say it is demanding in terms of light, others say it isn't. If it dies, I don't care because I got a sick piece of wood to compensate. What are your experiences with it?
Thanks!
Thanks!
