Nobody knows? What about widgeon grass, does it look like turtle grass? Is it completely aquatic? can it survive year round tropical tempatures?

Not sure about this hobby, but in my fresh water planted tanks, i run pressurised C02 whick gets sucked up by my canister so it mixes in with the water befor it entres my tank. I run normal daylight bulbs, (this depends on how deep these plants u collect are). I usualy keep a good level of nitrates (20-40) and a good lvl or phosphate and silica. ( not to high, but jsut abit over NSW)

I found that they like mud, helps them store nutrients and fish poo better.
