those Eracaulon flowers growing out of your main tank? or are you keeping them in a shorter tank instead?

Simon San, Its in my propagation tank which is shorter...
gerald, the genus is spelt Eriocaulon, just making sure we're propagating the right info for the newbies.![]()
BTW, will they do well in one-inch deep water without direct sunlight?
why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

Sorry didnt know how to spell correctly...
Yes it can be palnted in that manner (tried it previously;wondering what to do with my spares) but you gotta watch the humidity level
Mine is around 3-4 inches...
I have a trough with about 1-inch of water (enough for guppies to swim around in, the guppies are there to ward off MOE inspectors :P ) in the corridor away from direct sun, but wind is kind of strong. Right now it is full of crypts, let's see if they'll do well. I am looking for a standby plant in case the crypts needs to be replaced![]()

Would the strong wind mess with the humidity?

If your crypts are fine, there should not be a problem.

if my crypts do well there wouldn't be any space left for the Eriocaulon :P

Witness the birth of an Eracaulon.
