Zylstra555 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Which is easier to take care of? Brackish or Fresh water? What are the pros and cons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrikan Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Hi There We have kept both, and both have been easy, we just keep the freshwaters now, recently shut down our Brackish Tank to make some room. Cons about Brackish would be having to go and get the salt water :lol: :lol: Oh and plants.. bit limited with Brackish....however, we were able to keep a bit of macro algae in our Brackish set up... I am sure there are a couple of freshwater plants that can handle Brackish, however, can't recall what they are.. someone else might have an idea? Our Brackish tank was 50/50 saltwater/freshwater... Overall it was the same care really.. only ones Fresh and one Brackish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidb Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 some people say that java fern is ok in brackish but I'm nort sure. I reakon it looks cool when people grow mangroves in tanks, but if you can'd do that, you an make up for it using vines to make a root effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
