What's The Maximum Temperature For Plants?

[jnms]

Still going through the fishless cycle process - 6 weeks now - and suddenly had the thought that I could perhaps up the temperature of the tank. It is currently at 27C and I am thinking of increasing it to 30C.

I have a whole bunch of plants in the tank - will 30C be to high for them?

it depends on the plants.

it depends on the plants.

Camombia, Amazon Swords and two others I can't remember the name of...

cabomba survives at aroun 26C
amazon can survive 30C

You also have to remember that less CO2 is dissolved in higher temps

Thanks aaron - guess I will have to leave the temp where it is then...
