Plants for BW tank

Post by BubblePUffer »

Hi,

I am still new to the BW tank thing.. I would like to know is there any real Plant for Fern that I can keep between 1.010 - 1.012 BW tank. Is any small Lopter or Catfish can survive on those kind of Water.

Thank you

You can't really put any plant over 1.006, sorry.
Whats the point of a signature?!

Hrm, well as PP said it depends on the fish.

Amano shrimps can live in BW but if it's a puffer it might end up as a tastey little treat. Same with ghost shrimp.

My Palembang loves Ghost shrimp. My DPs ignore them.

Puffer say, YUM, crabs... YUM, shrimp! Sure, make them MY tank mates! Puffers are best in species only tanks. Really depends on the puffer. When you get him to SW conditions, you could consider SW tank mates like damselfish or maybe a tomato clown.
