Re-thinking my biotopes
ok well i have a S. American 75 gal and i have my DP tank... up to this point I have not worries about the plants being from those regions, but i think i want to move the plants around to better reflect the natural habitats...
here is how it looks right now... 75 gal S. American Tank ![]() Plants Java Moss: Vesicularia dubyana Christmas Moss: Fontinalis antipyretica Stargrass: Heteranthera zosterifolia Aponogeton undulatus Ambulia: Limnophila aquatica Carolina Fanwort: Cabomba carolina 1 Jungle Val: Vallisneria americana 1 Oriental Sword Echinodorus macrophyllus 2 Amazon Sword: Echinodorus amazonicus 1 Rubin Sword: Echinodorus 'rubin' Narrow Leaf Chain Sword: Echinodorus tenellus Four Leaf Clover: Marsilea crenata Primrose: Ludwigia repens Wisteria: Hygrophila difformis Rotala rotundifolia Hygrophila polysperma v. Sunset Hygrophila polysperma v. Ceylon Myriophyllum mattogrossense 10 gal DP tank ![]() Plants Bacopa caroliniana Java Moss: Vesicularia dubyana Aponogeton undulatus 1 Oriental Sword: Echinodorus macrophyllus 2 Amazon Sword: Echinodorus amazonicus Narrow Leaf Chain Sword: Echinodorus tenellus Primrose: Ludwigia repens Wisteria: Hygrophila difformis Hygrophila polysperma v. Ceylon Myriophyllum mattogrossense Carolina Fanwort: Cabomba carolina So.... i think i need to move... to the Asian DP tank... Limnophila aquatica Aponogeton undulatus Java Moss: Vesicularia dubyana Christmas Moss: Fontinalis antipyretica Wisteria: Hygrophila difformis Rotala rotundifolia Hygrophila polysperma v. Sunset Hygrophila polysperma v. Ceylon Four Leaf Clover: Marsilea crenata (I know "technically" Australia, but the Chain swords are over running it in the 75) and to the 75 gal S. American tank... Myriophyllum mattogrossense Carolina Fanwort: Cabomba carolina 1 Oriental Sword: Echinodorus macrophyllus 2 Amazon Sword: Echinodorus amazonicus Narrow Leaf Chain Sword: Echinodorus tenellus Primrose: Ludwigia repens Bacopa caroliniana is that right? did i miss anything?

now i just hope that the plants in the 10 grow, i am using two screw-in u-shaped CF bulbs. 20 watts... i could not find a k-# on them, but the light is kind of yellow-greenish, not convinced they are a good plant wavelength...
