    SA Themed Riparium

    They moved them onto immersed leaves. I have rooted plants to pieces of bogwood that refuse to sink. How about that, or some cork bark? Have also rooted stuff to immersed root-like oak branches. All the Hydrocotyle needs is bottom of stem in the water and something to grow along or over - could...

    Can't even find the smaller one today. Hope it's a sign of a spawning female. The tank is pretty densely planted. Here are a few pics

    5 foot biotopish!

    I used to use JBL ferropol, but since I have re-done the tank I haven't added any fertilisers. I do have a lot of oak, catappa and some magnolia leaf litter in there which I suspect adds phosphates, amongst other things. I have also used Trachycarpus fronds - the ones that turn brown at the...

    5 foot biotopish!

    Well, I never knew Sarracenia was temperate to subtropical, depending on species. Still, it seems to be doing well at temperatures between about 68 and 80F so can't complain. I have fruit fly infestation around my food recycling caddy in the kitchen so sorely tempted to try collecting them and...

    They were labelled as A. pertensis so my guess would be that they are A. cf pertensis. I emailed the shop but he had no catch location as they'd come from a wholesaler first. Do they even look like they could be a pair or is the less developed one likely a sub male. The yellower, smaller one...

    5 foot biotopish!

    I don't know about that Skoram - you can see the fish in yours without the use of a torch. I struggle to see all the fish and rarely see my discus. Yours looks really good - I like it. Oh, and thanks, I didn't actually know it was called Sarracenia - thanks for that, saves me looking it up...
