Title: lights and plants
Post by: Mugwump on November 15, 2017, 11:33:21 AM
I have always liked water sprite.....I happened to talk with a guy at the last swap that loves it too.....

  We got to talking and I mentioned that I used to keep a lot of it thriving....but now have had troubles. He says that the plant doesn't like the the lights.... huh...and after planting it under the old warm white tubes it has taken off for him again.......interesting...... |^|

..any other plants that might react that way...... huh

...mine is growing rather well right under the LED lighting I have...It's rooted in the corner filter and spreading over the surface of the water...
