I'd rather keep no plants than plastic plants, and saying that you can't keep any species of plants with CA cichlids is simply not true... Java fern, anubias nana, any species of moss grown on wood, especially established on wood before it is added to the tank, should do fine in most cases.drgnfrc13;4446590; said:Put a few medium sized CA cichlids in there and see how long that lasts...
Anubias nana is probably the easiest plant to grow, anchor it on to wood or rock. Java fern is the same process, but the root structure is different.Experiment397;4447136; said:ok, i will just tie them onto the wood, i will cycle it for about 4-6 weeks, will that be enough time to allow the plants to root onto the wood?during cycling the only thing in the tank will be a few swortails and the plants, and my jds have been kept with plants before, and they where fine, the pacu ate all my plants. so what plants to use? java moss, java fern, and what else? also can i float java moss on the surface? thnx
