Hi
Im setting up a new small tank in the kitchen which currently is cycling and has some plastic plants in, mainly coz I wanted this tank to be very low maintenence and some of you may know the probs I've had with my planted tank.
I have since changed my mind due to the fact I'm worried about the fish cutting themselves and also the high Nitrates in such a small tank.
So what I need is ideas for a very low maintenence type of plant that willsuit my water and won't be fussed with ferts or Co2. I was thinking of Cambomba but I just read it actually needs ferts and Co2. Any ideas?
My PH is about 7.5 and last time I tested my other tank the GH was 8 and KH was 3. I say my "tank" coz I don't know if it'll be different in the other tank?
