If This Wood Was In Your Tank

[markandhisfish]

here it is its about 12 inches high 15 wide and 12 front to back

 

[stoneagedinosaur]

I wouldn't! What a beautiful piece of wood...

 

[markandhisfish]

hmmm thats the other part of the dilemma. i toyed with growing an anubia on top of it but with the wood being so big i thought the anubia may be a bit too close to the light as i have read that they like a shady area of the tank. and if i grow moss on it would it spoil it.

anda good point there stoneagedinosaur i have now added a 3rd answer

 

[VaegaVic]

Several different anubias plants on there would look smashing.

Or perhaps Java fern?

 

[bae1994]

id do neither id grow riccia on the curv at top it would be look awsome with the fresh green colour

so ive nulled voted

 

[markandhisfish]

vic im not really a lover of java fern . bae its gonna be a low tech setup , doesnt riccia require co2 to thrive?

 

[Curiosity101]

I'd have a few nice anubias on it in the shadowy crevices. Not sure what type though.

 

[bae1994]

well i was suggested it for my 10 litre and it has no co2 and is growing well but i am using tpn+ and easycarbo (but the latter is no benefit to the riccia as it hates the stuff but still growing with me dosing it)

 

[markandhisfish]

arrrghh too many good ideas lol . well i got a couple of weeks to decide so im sure il keep deciding and changing etc

 

[chrisbassist]

maybe have longer plants growing through the gaps?

just another idea for you

 

[markandhisfish]

that could look pretty cool

 

[Bobtastic]

I would go for option D! Both! I would put an Anubias on the bottom loop and then place some moss on other areas.

 

[lljdma06]

Incomplete poll. If it were me, I'd put Bolbitis fern. A big, showy plant for a big showy piece of wood.

llj

 

[markandhisfish]

hmmm thats thrown a spanner in the works ( but in a good way) i like the look of that fern , so much nicer looking than java fern . is it easy to grow?

i think you should just give that wood to me, Mark.
