Anacharis dying....salvageable? (pics inside)

Like I said about a small clear container in the window sill. No problem with filters etc. Works like an charm!

Hmm, I do have one of those but no sunlight (sucky placing in my apartment). I will try it, though! The container is really small, however (one of those containers bettas come in).

But when the plants are healthy, how do you float them without filtration problems?

 

[ExPeNsIvE HoBbY]

You can loosely tie them with cotton thread, or redirect flow, but once they get healthy you can plant them like normal

Floating them and leaving your tank light on will work fine.8 hours a day for the light is plenty. No need to mess around with removing them and placing them in a betta cup. Just let them float at the top of the tank.

Egeria densa, Anachacis, or Elodea is a cool water plant that will fall apart at 82 degrees.

Here is a link to a page of warm water plants. There are lots more.

Inwas actually thinking something a little larger than a betta cup, more like 2-5 gallons.
