anyalife Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 I saw several pots of babytears (Micranthemum umbrosum) at the nursery section at bunnings warehouse today. Since I have no luck so far getting any glosso for the foreground of my tank, I am wondering would babytears be a good alternative? I have heard that they can form carpet as well under strong lighting but can be nuisance coz they grow like weed. Any idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anyalife Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Oops. sorry about the confusion. so any idea on the possibility for babytears as a foreground (carpet) plant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharn Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 i would think it would get much too tall. what about that lilaeopsis mauritius grassy stuff? or perhaps tennellus chain sword (true or not true, they both stay low i think)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 Baby tears will grow too tall for a foreground plant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
