    Need some expert advices. Does this plant require strong light and CO2 to grow well?

    1) Mini Pellia.
    2) Fissiden.
    3) HC.

    Has been wanted to have this in my tank but want to make sure first before I start to buy..

    And make sure you have no SAE in that tank...
    Fissiden is the favourite food for SAEs...

    I'm a newbie but i think HC is very difficult.
    All 3 times i tried, all melted away.

    fissiden about 26~27 will do, growth won't be fast thats all. Mini pellia is tough, but HC needs high light.
    Cheers,

    Somehow there seems to be no formula that guarantees success ... for instance, someone's HC can bubble with no CO2 under sunlight (i.e. high temperature) and a lot of us just can't get that damn plant right.

    I have mini pellia in my office low tech tank and there is no fertilization, no CO2. It's juz PL light and water top-up ... but the mini pelia was growing very well ... it's spreading slowly ... but very healthy

    Thanks for all the advice, will be trying on some fissiden last week from a kind bro who delivered it to me. Last hope that it will survive in my low tech tank.

    I try to grow mini pellia at home and office, the one at home all died up after 2 weeks and the one at office growing nicely. I gues mini pellia need cold water as well.
