Live Plants

Posted on 1:56 PM by Unknown
Today, I received my plant order from LiveAquaria.com. I ordered one java fern, one micro sword, one temple - narrow leaf, and one water wisteria. I performed a partial water change - removing 5.5 gallons, then planting the received plants (I received two of the temple - narrow leaf), and then added back 6.0 gallons of replacement water.



The following tables lists the live plants in the aquarium:







Live Plants and Recommended Environments
Temp RangepH RangedH Range
LowHighLowHighLowHigh
Amazon Sword Plant (echinodorus amazonicus)72°82°6.57.2212
Java Fern (microsorum pteropus)68°82°5.57.5212
Micro Sword (lilaeopsis novae-zelandiae)64°77°6.87.5815
Temple - Narrow Leaf (hygrophila corymbosa)72°82°6.57.5512
Water Wisteria (hygrophila difformis)74°82°6.57.5212




Based on the recommendations, my tank to be optimally set for these plants should be between 74° and 77° Fahrenheit, between 6.8 and 7.2 pH, and between 8 and 12 dH.
