I just bought a micro sword (lilaeopsis brasiliensis) from work tonight. I've never grown micro sword before. I've read that it needs moderate light, I plan on putting it in my 10 gallon. Will it do ok with a regular tank light?
I wanted to try something new in my tank. If it does well in my 10 gallon then I may get some for my 29 gallon tank. How do you plant it? Just bury the roots in the gravel? Right now I have it in a container of water until toomorrow. I'm planning on gravel-vacing my tanks tomorrow so I didn't want to put it in the tank tonight and then have to move it when I clean tomorrow. What have your experience with micro sword been? Are they easy to grow or are they difficult?
