How tall have you seen corkscrew Vallisneria get? I've seen conflicting info on the Internet (1 ft max and 20 inches max) and wanted to see what you guys have experienced.
Thanks.
Thanks.
My Corkscrew Vals are about an inch from the surface of my water in a 30" tall tank, 220g. I can tell you they do grow slow and take quite some time to get there. I didn't mind because I don't like the Jungle and Red vals that grow 2-3' leaves that lay all over the water surface. I believe light and CO2 or liquid carbon in my case really aid in the plants growing tall. Where are you thinking of planting them.. mid or back in the tank?
I have flow going through mine and they handle it just fine. They would also be perfect in that size tank since they really are slow growers in the height department. If your wanting them in the front of the tank I would suggest going with dwarf sag which only gets to 8" tall or even something lower like dwarf chain sword.
Sounds good. Naw I was just kidding about having them in front.
Hey I've seen plenty of tanks with them in the front so was just covering my bases... lol!
