Adelae Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 I am wondering what utrics people have used on the bottom of their aquariums, I have a stellaris tank that has U.uliginosa and dichotoma on the bottom.A pond with U.Bifida doing well on the bottom.And another pond where I am trialing U.Longifolia, livida and prealonga (so far praelonga has grown and the other 2 have done nothing).So Uliginosa and Bifida work.I have seen plenty of images of graminifolia working well, but what else works.I would imagine that Bisquamata and subulata would work well, but I have not tried this so I can't confirm.What utrics have people used with success? On a side note, can nelumbifolia be grown similiar to a water lily (attached to the bottom) with a depth of 10-15cm and a soil of sand/spag?Or is slurry/raised pot/bromiliad the only ways to go.

notostracan Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 I've only grown U.graminifolia and U.vulgaris myself, but am very interested in your post! I want to get some easy "terrestrial" utrics at some point soon, so if they grow well I'll try flooding some too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenofeden Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 Nelumbifolia seems quite happy to grow out of its pots and into my water trays with about 5cm of water so worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
