Hello. About 2 mos ago I decided to start a planted aquarium. I went to a big box pet store...about all we have here...with very limited knowledge re where to start. The employee recommended a peacock fern as well as a couple other small plants. I have since added a number if other plants bought from live aquaria and am having decent success.
I now know that peacock fern should be a terrarium plant and should not be fully submerged...which mine is. So I'm not sure what to do with mine now. It looks good right now and even appears to have new growth. I see no rotting right now...and it's very pretty! Do I need to pull it right now? Or can I keep an eye on it? Is there any way to continue to use it appropriately in my current aquarium (ie float it or something).
Thanks.
