    Try visiting http://www.tropica.com/article.asp?t...aristic&id=731.

    I'm wondering if carnivorous plant will survive or do well relying solely on EI dosing? I read somewhere that this carpet plant is easier to maintain than HC & glosso.

    Am I right to assume that we cannot have this in shrimp tank?

    Just learnt from APC that the traping device/bladder openings are only large enough for microrganisms to enter.

    Attached is the plant when grow emerged. Honorable moderator, I'm not sure if I can post image that was posted somewhere else.

    Yes. Far East is selling UG every now and then. But need to call up to check whether it is available to be safe.

    Just want to add that it may require cool water and it is a slow growing plant. Shihyong is an expert of this plant. I failed miserably in 4 attempts but will try it again after seeing Sam Yick display tank at marine parade branch

    Cool water is not necessary. It grows well in romm temperature tank like 28C-31C.

    Yah, emersed form is very very nice. Looks more like chendol compare to submersed one.
