my pothos

this is on my 65g. i have 2 fluval 406's and 2 aq70s on this tank. i have no media in the aquaclears except fluval biomax, i used two 500g boxes for each filter... i think the roots of the pothos like going into this stuff a lot. this room gets no sunlight except ambient light so im not sure how its doing so well, its been growing for about 6 months now and has probably tripled in size. so figured id share an easy way to grow this stuff

Nice share, I've been thinking about some way to try pothos recently; have you noticed a big difference on your nitrates?

yup this stuff really works but you need quite a bit of it i think. i started with one small plant and didnt notice much of a difference until i got a second plant and they started getting bigger.

i actually had it on top of the aq sponges before and had to keep pulling it out after the sponges clogged. the way the biomax piles up on itself leaves many open gaps that are actually pretty big. that along with the holes in the middle of the stuff it should be ok.

Hi guys,

I have a question for you, how exactly do you get the plants to stay in place, do you have some mest tray hanging in there or are they cable tied into place?

i love the look and the idea!!!

adds much zen to the room!!!

nope i have nothing except biomax. i just placed them in there loosely and after a few weeks the roots take care of the rest
