Amazon Sword under filter outflow

[aqua7]

If I was to replant one of my Amazon Swords right below my HOB filter outflow, would the Sword be affected in any way?

I don't think it would be a problem, so long as the flow isn't breaking the sword in half.

Thanks fort! I figured if I was to do that I could 1) hide the filter's intake tube and 2) slow down the outflow current.

I'd say go for it! I have a sword about to grow out the top of my 75 that is at the output of my rena xp4.. The sword just blows around.. My bamboo shrimp loves to hang out on it at night..

Thanks cjldad, I did it and my Otocinclus' enjoy resting on the leaves under the current.
