Zylstra555 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Previously in our fish tank, we have had a few plants, which we had to remove. They either died, or took over the tank. What are some of the easiest freshwater plants to take care of that will not take over? We also have a fish which we have named Romeo, who likes to dig, will this cause problems with plants? Also, in our local pet store, we have seen live plants that come in a container instead of seen in a tank with a pot, and a small package containing the bulbs for underwater plants. Which are best to get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 What size is your tank? Give us dimensions please, not US gallons. Is it tropical or coldwater? What sort of fish in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilknieval69 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 First thing we need to know is, what kind of fish do you have? As some fish like to eat plants, and some fish like to dig so much that its almost impossible to keep plants without them floating..... Some 'beginners' plants would be ambulia, cabomba, hygrophilia, amazon sword and val. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zylstra555 Posted January 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Dimensions go as follows: Depth: 1 foot, 2 inches Height: 23 inches Front Width: 51 inches Back Width: 50.5 inches It is a bow front tank, and holds 72 gallons We have (and forgive the spelling) three gouromies, three parrots, three severums. (Oh, also one bamboo shrimp, but not often seen at all) The Gouromies and the bamboo shrimp are the smallest of them all, and were recently bought. Its a tropical tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
