Good floating plants?
Can anyone recommend some good floating plants? The main purpose of this plant will be to allow my male betta to build bubble nests and to float frozen food for a longer period of time. -- Remove the spam-me-not. to e-mail me |

Good floating plants?
I have several Water Lettuce(Pistia stratiotes L.) Floating in the 75 community.
They require high light (but they float inches from the bulbs) and are considered a nuisance in the wild by the ecologists, but I like em in the aquariums. http://www.apms.org/plants/waterlettuce.htm -- ------ Billy ----- *AOL is Sucks* ----- Organized protests are generally intended to annoy those not involved with it.

Likely because of the ecological impact they'd have if they were "set free".

I like Brazilian Pennywort. It's hardy and easy to trim.
