Thats the one. The only problem is the Discus are always in spawning mode so they arent showing off their colours as much as i would like.

They are chain swords. Those ones are about a year old now.

[mitsui]

do they grow very tall?? I am looking for a plant that doesn't grow to tall to use as a forground plant.. Have you got any ideas?

[BigDaddyAdo]

They stay fairly short.

[mitsui]

Thanks for that Ado.. Might have to look into them a bit more

[BigDaddyAdo]

Well at least they are consistent. They have spawned again.

From memory they are just normal chain swords.

How far along are they getting? Wrigglers or free swimming yet?
Best of luck with them..

Its Blyxa

Its only around 1.5wpg and no CO2. I use Dino Dung, Spit and Pee and Potassium Nitrate.

The eggs only last a day or two. I think that the male A.Trifasciata likes to snack on the eggs and that eventually causes the female Turk to eat the rest which seems to cause some distress to the male. They have only been together for a few weeks so im happy with their progress so far. Soon i will remove the Apisto when they spawn.

I use Dino Pee, Spit and Dung. I also add Potassium Nitrate at each water change.

[mitsui]

Thank you for that Ado. I will look into those ferts.
