Re: Fp. gardneri N'sukka biotop!
Dear Bobo, The rainforest is quite dark but gardneri in the aquarium can get
used to almost any light level. If I could adjust the light level, I would
opt for the low side. As far as plants go I only use two species, Java fern
and Java moss. Both plants do well under low light conditions. Java moss is
also quite good for providing substrate in which a lot of micro
invertebrates, like rotifers, live. These provide food for small newly
hatched fry. Java fern has nice large bright green leaves even when grown
under low light conditions. The roots of the Java fern are also where a lot
of killies will lay their eggs. See you later, Nevin
