Azrael_Darkness  Fish Addict Posts: 547 Kudos: 420 Votes: 8 Registered: 26-Oct-2004   | Do plants thrive the same in brackish water as they do freshwater? I don't even know if you can use plants in brackish water  Someone please clear this up for me. |

The Tropica site is a good start in all their profiles they mention the plant tolerance to water hardness, you can also get more info at: Aquatic Plant Central The Krib Good Luck  Last edited by Falstaf at 29-Jan-2005 14:04 |
