Mr Gumby Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Hi folks, I picked up a couple of sprigs of hornwort at the weekend. It's mainly for my fry tank as it gets fed pretty heavily as you can imagine and I wanted to extend the water changes intervals. Plus places for fry to hide. I had enough to throw some in my display tank and now I'm wondering if I loosely tie it to one of the ceramic plant rings with clear fishing line so it's growing upwards will there be enough light at the bottom? I've got a good carpet of cryptocryne and could easily hide the ceramic ring amongst them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anewbie Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 depends on how tall your aquarium is and the type of light you have on it but i suspect it will be fine; i have some in a pail with no light and while it is a bit pale it still grows.

It's about 20 inches from the light to the substrate and I run an aquasky. Hopefully if yours grows with no light it should grow ... fingers crossed...my spray bar just pushed it to one corner which didn't look great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
