Hi,
I have been building up my knowledge and selection of plants in my corner tank for a while.
Recently ive been getting "into" dwarf clovers and carpeting.
Now i'm looking for a plant to tie in the scape, for a busy area at once side reaching towards the back a height of about 30 cm but also to go cover the stems of the large amazon swords of the other side of the tank.
After studying the excellent Amano books i noticed he used the Anubias Nana plant alot. This looks like it could be the plant i need.
Cross referening plant geek tells me this is a good plant for low medium low (1.8 wpg) tank (with pressurised CO2).
What are everyone's experiences of Anubias Nana and other variations of this species?
Plant Geek makes reference to the slow growing nature and thereby tendancy to get algae, this is putting me off slightly as i'm struggling with BBA atm.
Thanks in advance,
John
p.s Piccy's of your plants would be appreciated as I don't know how many I should buy in to fill the spaces I want it for, or how it grows and spreads.
