I have hornwort floating in a number of tanks, but in a few it has gotten tough and brittle feeling. It's also falling apart in those tanks making a big mess ]:| So time to find a new floater. I've read suggestions here about using wisteria, does it do well in low, low-medium light? I've also been looking at salvinia. Are there any downfalls to it, such as taking over the tank? And does it do well in those same lighting conditions?

I had fantastic success with my first apon bulb (boivinianus) and I'd like to try another. My other options from the site I purchase from are Madagascar lace and ulvaceus. Are they similar to boivinianus in terms of growth and care?

edit: and one more question I'm setting up a 10g shellie tank, are there any floating plants that do well in hard water with a pH of ~8.0 ?
