Not sure what that is Tiller, but if it roots in water, you should be able to throw it in your tank one way or another and it should consume some nitrates.

F1, have you seen ripariums? It is basically your idea with the planter pots but the water level is dropped in the tank and it's laid out to look like the edge of a river/stream/whatever.

Of course. Really have to dig up that thread in the setup section.

clockwork: Yea I've seen em, basically never change water, just add some for mineral replacement!

Tiller almost any plant works, however pothos is very good at consuming nitrate and its very cheap, yes you can snip a segment off and it will also grow , you can also plant them in ur substrate and they will grow above water, a couple vines are hanging off the sides of my tank, I'm going to pin it to the ceiling when it gets bigger. Give it a month, it will be a monster.
