Kookie Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Hi, I know this has probably been asked before, but I was wanting to know what the best and nicest type of floating plant is for a f/w tropical tank? It's got to be fairly bushy for my live bearers and egg layers. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LYNDYLOO Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 What about Riccia or Duckweed, I think it's called, TradeMe usually has a good selection of plants for sale at goood prices. Good Luck Lynda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livebearer_breeder Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 I would discourage the use of Duckweed. Riccia and Indian fern are good. Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kookie Posted January 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Cheers for that. I will google search for images, so I know what the Riccia looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jude Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 If you want some indian fern, pm me. I just chucked out a lot of baby plants but I am sure there will be more there soon. Cheers Jude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
