i think so the red tail just dose not like other fish that look like them i use to have one in a tank he did fine

ya we did man

I was just sitting hear looking at my tank thinking should the lights not be off. looked at the time. thought ok maybe the power was out when I was at work. but no I just discovered the switch om my timer was in the ON over ride position for the last 2 weeks plus I think. that would why there was a light sprinkle of green spot agile on my tank. 208W of t5ho for 24/7 i think i got lucky. I think I saw a blue ram with sun glass on though no Agile though

thanks man

fish are just filler and fertilizer

hear are some new photos

it was just not improving there were a few roots when i puled it out but i needed the space to put other plants lol

it went in the trash it looked like hell in my tank 2 weeks later

There rabbit. Plecos

How much you get it for did you see the pump up and running

bad Fish now that is funny though is that a toy dead cow in your thank?

i know they can live in a tank with other fish but i do not know about 20 in the same tank

ok thought thought it would be a phone though the tank when fighting with the gf fun suff

I just put it in my tank glued it to a flower see my post about it spike moss hut. I dose the full line of seachem except excel with 208 w of t5ho on 12 hr a day Co2 is about 1.5 -2 BPS. my tank is way over filtered with 2 eheim pro 3 filters ones a 2075 and a 2073. It is my first time ever growing moss and it seams happy in my tank.

Do tell what went flying in to your tank to brake it tell tell tell. All the detales

Once every 5 days

will get totally lost in my tank

there was a tiny bit of new growth in the tank it was in before Is good 'ja ? what? i can move one next week when i get home and put it horizontally will this work for all stem plants? if i take a long stem and plant it in a shape will i get a up shoot at each node in the shape i plant it?

thanks guys it helped this stuff dose not look like it just yet i might just need some more now growth

so i cant find vary much info on this stuff a scientific name or other name? would be nice and a price for this stuff would be amazing. i got it at Aquarium Central who said a friend gave it to when he opined and it is extremely rare it is growing like mad in my 75 and is happy

tell you what we can just hang out at my place for a day or 2 then you will help pack a ac home from the store lol if i remember right my places hit the 30's last summer it bakes in the sun all day.

dose that not defeat the propose of all the co2 i am pumping in?

the diy one is not something i would do i would most likely chill the entire room

was there not photos with this last time i looked?

So i rescued some Nesaea red from a guy it was just unhappy in his setup. It was slowly dieing lots of brown leafs falling off vary little new growth at all just sick and unhappy it went in my tank a week ago Monday May 2 2011 do i have the name right ? will post a updated photos when i get home hear next week. some info i just found NESAEA SP. 'RED LEAVED' Hardiness: Very Difficult Light Needs: High Plant Structure: Stem Family: Lythraceae Genus: Nesaea Region: Africa Location: West Africa Size: Stem width: 3-5cm (1-2in) Growth Rate: Medium Can Be Grown Emersed: Yes Description: Nesaeasp. 'Red Leaved' is a small, marsh dwelling herb from West Africa where it can usually be found growing emersed. This striking red plant is not too popular in the trade, perhaps due to the difficulty of long term success. However, it can be easily obtained through stores that regularly import plants from southeast Asia. This Nesaea sp. is perhaps one of the most difficult to grow stem plants in the entire hobby. It requires intensive lighting (3 watts per gallon or more) and consistent CO2 levels in the 25-30 ppm range. A disciplined, consistent fertilization regimen including nitrate, phosphate, and iron additions is absolutely essential for long term success. Nitrate should be kept moderate (5-15 ppm) and phosphate levels should be kept high (1-2 ppm). Iron and micronutrient fertilization should be added daily to every other day as per the needs of the aquarium. Substrate fertilization seems to be beneficial, perhaps explaining why this species has such a large root system for a stem plant. Remember, consistency is the key as this plant takes a long time to recover from stunting. When growing well, N. sp. 'Red Leaved' is a striking, small red plant that will sprout both vertical and horizontal stems. However, it will not produce new growth in any hurry�growth is slow. If the need for trimming does arise, simply trim off any excess growth with a pair of scissors. The plant will quickly produce new side shoots. The striking red growth of this Nesaea sp., coupled with its relatively small size, make it an excellent choice for adding color to the midground in small to medium sized aquariums. Although it is beautifully colored, this red stem plant can only be recommended to the hobbyist who is willing to put in the extra time and effort.
