Riccia

[Angry_Platy]

I have the opportunity to buy some riccia. I also managed to get hold of some awesome pieces of slate yesterday which I am planning on covering with riccia.

What I need are hints on how to attach the riccia to the slate.....

Also hints on getting the riccia to grow well.

I have 3.2wpg lighting. DIY CO2 maintained at 15-25ppm and I use liquid ferts as well as root tabs.

Is it worth buying? Will it grow well in my tank? Should I buy it?

Any help would be appreciated.......

Just use fishing line or a hair net to hold the riccia around the slate and it will grow through within weeks. I think you have adequate co2 and lighting. I leave mine floating and it grows very well!

Goodluck!
