I'm looking for suitable plants as a means of additional filtration. It would be placed in the sump. The depth of the sump compartment is 6.5" and the lighting would be a 8W Cool Daylight [just an ordinary light from hardware store]
1. The plants must be great at nitrate absorbing
2. Able to flourish under the lighting
3. Commonly found
4. Don't need a substrate (can be potted or free hanging)
5. Floating plants prefered.
Can any of you suggust plants which fits most of the criteria?
For some great planter options... or pm Hydrophyte (his site) for plant/planter options. I've gotten several orders from him and he's super knowledgeable and good to work with...
