Ranuncuhus figara or Buttercups as I know it.
What are your thoughts on having this plant in your aquarium? Is it a case of pulling the plant from the ground, washing the roots, and floating it on the water surface?

now thats interesting, i get loads of these things every year all around my pond, mmmm when they pop up again next year i might just try 1 in my tank, should be ok cause i never use pesticides in my garden, i get a lot of headge hogs and even get a visit from a fox now and then, so i don't want to poison them, yes thanks for putting this link up, i'll give them a try

Wow, I never knew that! Any more Kitty that you've dug up (sorry for the pun) from the UK?

If I dig up any more useful snippets, I'll post them here, lol!

I found the item really interesting and wondered if anyone else had heard of it. The roots as a hiding place for fry sounds just the job! It's from a reputable site so it must be o.k.
