hornwort growth rates
hey all.. I just had a quick question. I just got back from petsmart and i picked up some hornwort for my 29 gal community tank. I really like the way it looks, and wanted to find out how much of it I should get. The tank could probably hold three or four plants of the size I had purchased, but I'm not sure if I can just have the one plant and let it grow. I have, among other fish, a couple of kissing gouramis and also several fiddler crabs, and the last time I tried to add plants to it they ate them in about two weeks. Trying this again, but I wanted to know if hornwort grows as fast as Cabomba, or should I just keep getting new plants when they eat the old ones? thanks in advance.. --Josh Bruce visit my home page at http://hometown.aol.com/gbruce121 |

I have known hornwort to grow up to 4 inches in a day. I had it fill a 20 high to the point where the fish were near to panic from a double bunch 12 inches long in less than 3 weeks. It's a weed. Great for lowering nitrates, LOL! |
