TimTam22 Posted November 13, 2006 Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 I'm a bit stumped on how I get it all to actually to stay on the wood or rock etc.... Would the ricca die if i got a flat river rock and put silicon on it and then sprinkled the ricca on top then gently pushed it down just enough to get it to stick??

Luke* Posted November 13, 2006 Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 I don't think a lot of people have riccia or try to stick it down as it naturally floats, and is quite a pain as it will grow out from whatever you tie it down with, some people use some inside a stocking and that is tied to a rock or whatever then it grows though (think that's how it works, try google). But I'd say most would tie it down to slate or wood with nylon. It pearls up beautifully if you run CO2 on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiuh Posted November 13, 2006 Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 quite a tricky little thing to do ay...i tried by using 2 piece of gutter mesh and sandwiched riccia in them. then just let them grow in there. :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livebearer_breeder Posted November 13, 2006 Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 use one of those shower sponge ball thingys, take it apart and use the netting. $2 max. Easy Pesy Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jude Posted November 13, 2006 Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 yep, what Shae said. Wrap the rock and the riccia in the net - or use a hairnet/bun net - but the shower thingies from the $2 are better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
