    Hi Members,

    mind if you can recommend some good back ground plants for my 2ft tank. It have to be able to withstand the water current from the internal filter. As i am planning to use the back ground plants to "hide" the filter. Thanks

    Hmmmm... what's the flow rate on your filter? First of all, divert the output against the tank wall. Then the plant hiding it don't have to contend with the full blast of the current.

    I'll think about the plants...

    Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:

    You can try C.balansae, Aponegeton species, Valinesia species or various type of stemmed plant such as Gratiola sp, Cabomba species, Rotala species....... etc.
