Tom, your SAE's must be related to our five :) I wasn't sure if they
actually eat the ultrafine leaves or damage them trying to clean them.
However, they hang out there quite a lot, so I think they are well past the
cleaning stage. In any case, our wallichii is surviving and growing, but
nothing to write homepage about. Too bad, because I really like the
contribution this plant makes to an aquascape.
