I have had a nitrate problem in my tank lately and went online and found out about pothos plants in a bob filter. It said that it can remove 5-10ppm of nitrate in a week, so I decided to give it a try.
Starting nitrate is about 35-40ppm![ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1422054177.824063.jpg ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1422054177.824063.jpg](https://www.aquariumadvice.com/data/attachments/223/223478-194d2ec39277d31668202657c2db3d50.jpg)
This is how it looks with the plants sticking out. If it works I will post how I did it. It only cost me 8 dollars because I already had the filter.![ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1422054298.738156.jpg ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1422054298.738156.jpg](https://www.aquariumadvice.com/data/attachments/223/223480-f81844fcd9e2a5614a1f1ed53f1d7e7a.jpg)
