I have a 10 gallon with two of these bulbs ( Aqueon® Mini Compact 50/50 Fluorescent Lamp - Lighting & Hoods - Fish - PetSmart ) in my tank. I'm in the process of cycling for my boyfriends son. He wants live plants and liked the Cabomba we sell at PetSmart, but.... I'm wondering if anyone has grown it in a low-tech setup? I only have gravel substrate and I have API leaf zone I use in another tank.
Since I'm cycling, I don't want to add a plant that's going to melt and send my water quality out of control. Also, they shed terribly at PetSmart....but we keep them in a very cold tank in tight bundles. Do they shed as much when they're separated and in warm water, or is that just the nature of the beast?
