    what kind of algae? i know you'll get tons of algae if you collect the water from your WC and leave it in an outdoor tank for a couple of days...

    Just leave your tank direct to the sunlight. Don't need to have any filtration. I have my 2 tubes of moss with some green algae already. If you want it let me know, I can contribute to you.

    Attaching a link or a picture of it will help people to have an idea exactly what you are looking for. Response will be better.

    It says in wiki that,

    'Tephrosia odorata is a species of legume in the Fabaceae family. It is found only in Yemen. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry lowland grassland.'

    No idea whether can it grow submerge...

    Hopefully this site can shed some light
