New Zealand has nothing that will harm you. There is nothing poisonous or vicious

Mother has alot to answer for...
My dad, bless him, had the chance to be posted to either Mauritius or NZ with the prison service. Mother threw a tantrum "We're not going to move to another bleeping island!!!" We had just moved off the Isle of Wight (where I was hatched).
We moved to Brixton instead.
Oz & NZ were the only places that I never managed to get to when I had my cruise ship obsession. Mainly due to it being way out of my affordability.

You Know how sometimes you look at something and then don't see what is going on. Well the largest of the Hygrophila siamensis have sent down aerial roots to the floor of the tank. The roots have come from the nodes right on the surface of the tank. Plants are really clever. These two photos show them if you use your imagination

I love keeping fish, you never know what you are going to discover next. I Thought these plants were going to flower and all the time they have been securing themselves to the base. Wow Wow
Wish Hygrophilia would grow like that in my tanks.You Know how sometimes you look at something and then don't see what is going on.

Looking good
does leaving it to grow that high not effect the lower leaves of the plant?P.s Anymore black skirt babies found under the skyscaper H. siamensis

Have just got six baby Black Phantoms that I know of, but I am feeding egg yolk daily just in case. The leaves of the Hygrophila have almost all gone under the water.Wish Hygrophilia would grow like that in my tanks.

Brixton, Mauritius or New Zealand? Unlucky! I wouldn’t have chosen Brixton if it had been Brixton, Pentonville or Wormwood Scrubs to be perfectly honest.

The more plant the less algae. I have a bit but it is under control
My first tank was right next to a window with direct sunlight. The tank had NO live plants and I never had a problem with algae.
