I need to know which plants would do best on the side where the filter is. There is a lot of water movement from the hob. I have 2 kinds of rotalla, 2 kinds of val, a couple of swords, some that I can't remember the names of and some I can't spell. They are all shown in my journal for my 55g.
I am trying to get the different plants grouped together, but I don't want to put it in the wrong place and kill it. For now they are spread all over the tank hoping something will survive. I can't find info on if they like water movement or not. All I can find is lighting needs and stuff like that. Does the water movement make any difference to the plants?
Thanks for helping! :good:
 
get yourself a spray bar...they will cut the flow power of the filter down and spread it out over the tank...actually does a good job of keeping it clean and moving the dirt to the back for the plants to use
 
What do spray bars hook up to?
I have a hob filter and can't afford to buy a new filter right now because I am trying to get lighting and co2 kits.
This is why I am trying to find out what plants can deal with the movement for now I have to work with what I have.
Besides... I have plants everywhere. They aren't just in the back. My path is the only place without plants, and it is on the other side of the tank.
Thanks :good:
