  1. No roots, it's a thallose liverwort. Looks like this on the surface if the lighting is sufficient - turns into a bit of a nuisance when it grows like this, blocks out the light, breaks into heaps of bits and blocks the filter intake if it gets blown around the tank by the return. I can send you some if you do not find any down your way.
  2. Hmmm, I can see a tank reshuffle coming up... Now.... Which fish shall I put where?
  3. Nope, has no roots just floats about on the top of the tank, unless you tie it down with something, like a hair net or nylon. It dies off if it gets insufficient light, so if you have too big a wad of it tied to something, the stuff underneath usually goes yellow and mushy and dies off - very messy. And if you try and trim or mow it you will end up with a mess that takes ages to try and net out of the tank :evil:
  4. I think they are pretty damned ugly - I think it is the weird large vacant looking eyes... Give me a few Carinotetraodon travancoricus any day
  5. Forgot to say, Riccia is NOT partial to too much Flourish Excel, either.
  6. Plantlets that form on the leaf margins - heaps of them!!! Then they detach and drift around and grow on the surface of the water. The one on the Riccia is a plantlet, and although not wild, Riccia is available in NZ
  7. I recall my father using the following organophosphates: Phosdrin (Methamidophos) Malathion Diazinon prills All toxic to bees.

  9. How the heck did you bodge up the BB code so much ? Will attempt to unravel it...
