Moments before spontaneously combusting muddyfox at
was heard opining:

Hi,

I'm planning my first planted tank (well, fully planted tank - I've
always had some plants in previous tanks) and I'm really struggling to
work out how to supply the lighting I need. I'm going for a 2ft tank
and the only plant I'm absolutely hooked on growing is Riccia, because
I adore that grass like look.
===========
Riccia isn't grasslike. It's more like a tangled ball of green stuff. :-)
I wish I could find the real thing but no one here carries it. Twice I
ordered it online and twice I received lichen which dies underwater. They
sent it complete with tiny twigs and pine needles still in it. Needless to
say I don't order plants from the net anymore.
