Fish On The Brains   Hobbyist Posts: 141 Kudos: 126 Votes: 65 Registered: 04-Jan-2005    | Here is a list of my live plants: 1 Anubias 'Nana' (divided into 3 seperate plants) 1 Hygrophila Polysperma (divided into 2 seperate) 2 Anacharis (propagated 2 more small) 1 Corkscrew Vallisneria 1 Hornwort or Cabomba Will these plants be affected by adding aquarium salts? The recommended dosage is 1 tsp. for every 5 gal. What dosage would be best? Cory_Di made a cool sudgestion for slow releases of salt. Any tips for weighing down small stemmed propagated plants? I have some large plant weights made by Lee's, but they won't wrap around the ba http://www.members.fishprofiles.com/files/forums/Water%20Quality/52894.html?200501160853 Thanks ahead of time!

I use the normal salt dosage on my betta bowls which have Hygrophila and they don't seem to mind at all. Good Luck  |
