Lobelia cardinalis (Cardinal Plant)
Hello everyone,
First trip to the LFS in a while yesterday. Picked up some more ottos and a second Bolivian Ram (soo cute!) Also stumbled across a potted plant in one tank labeled "Cardinal plant - Lobelia cardinalis". It has some pretty cool leaf coloration, kind of a purpleish color. I searched on google some for both the common name and the scientific name, and found lots of links for a non-aquatic plant. Some of links claims that it grows equally well in water and out. Anyone know for sure? The tag (From Florida Aquatic Nurseries) claims "True Aquatic, Foreground, Moderate Light", but mentions nothing about fertilizing. I've got it in my 20g tank with 40W of flourescent light and DIY CO2. I dose Kent Freshwater Plant Supplement and Flourish Trace weekly (or so - I'm a tad random about it these days), but also feed some plants via substrate tablets. This guy looks like a root feeder - anyone know for sure? Thanks! -- Ross Vandegrift A Pope has a Water Cannon. It is a Water Cannon. He fires Holy-Water from it. It is a Holy-Water Cannon.
