any tips on plants to avoid in the southeast US? I've got a ton of untended yard with lots of small shrubs/trees and I'm wondering if there's any of the plants I need to avoid if I'm going to trim some limbs and use them for 'scaping my tank. -debark a limb and hang it upside down in the tank to emulate roots. I was thinking that poison ivy makes some great shapes, but would be really bad on the fish if the urishiols in the sap dissolve into the water. . . But what about some other plants/vines - native grapes, oak saplings etc. . .
I've been thinking I could trim some bamboo from a neighbors stand to make a 'teepee' kind of structure on one side of the tank? any tips experience out there on that too?
