Default 3WPG, injected CO2, small tank plant selection

I'm not exactly sure which I saw at the LFS, but I'm leaning towards
the Glosso. It's got a nice clover quality to it. But, the question
is; will my Pleco eat/uproot it?


Plecos won't eat it. And they probably won't uproot it, at least once it gets
established.

The key to planting glosso is to cut it into small pieces, and plant each one
individually. As long as each piece has one pair of leaves and some little
roots, it will be fine. (If there aren't enough roots, let the glosso stems
float until there are roots at almost every node, then cut them into pieces and
plant.)

Glosso does best with a lot of light and CO2, though. It's not a plant for a
low-light tank.
