High temperature tolerance

[bl00]

I'm treating for ich right now with heat, probably at 86*F but I've heard that I might have to bump the heat closer to 90. Could this have any negative impact on the plants in my tank?

 

[Lupin]

It depends which plants you have.

I have Swords, Java ferns, and some budding ferns and vals.
