  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Pothos Ivy(Devils Ivy" Mine is thriving:) i have it zip tied to my water flow return system at the top of my tank.. I love it! My SA's and CA's in this tank love it as well, cause they now get to stock their prey.. I am now seening a completely different side of my 56 year old fishies!!
 
I've had success with marimo balls (even though my oscar sorta ripped them up partially), and floating plants like pennywort and frogbit, thats what I have in my tank right now. I had some problems with rooted plants (hairgrass and amazon swords), but now I tightly surrond my plant's roots with large heavy stones and my oscar can't get to it, and neither can my catfish, whom likes to dig. They do like to hang and hide in the plants.
