That top down shot is great it's like looking down into a river or pond, I like the picture of the buried shrimp too it's awesome 🙂

Thanks, its Dwarf Water Lettuce / Pistia Stratiotes, very cool plant indeed, grows very well and fast, next time I have some spare rather than chucking it in the bin I will offer it in the forum.

Thanks mate, still a few things I want to do extra with the emerged plants, having a hard time finding any that will survive long enough with roots in the water!
 
Paulo, can you direct me to where i can find out how to pm you. I have looked but to no avail. How much donation where you looking for ?

Cheers charlie

Paolo, is the Bolbitis you have a mini variety? I want to get some but I know that they get massive. How did you find it? And do you know where I might find a mini var?
All looking great, good luck with the breeding :thumbup:

Just the standard Bolbitus heudelotii, on a low tech grows very slow and also very small.

Many thanks 🙂
 
Hi Paulo, how are these progressing slowly I'm sure?

Is there any chance I could pick up your study (with the tanks) and put it in my house? For a small donation of course 😉 This definitely shows what can be done with the good old fashioned methods, no ferts and CO2. Brillaint.
 
Hi mate, sure come on by and pick it all up hah but you are welcome to come and view them.
These are very low maintenance, I planted the Flora 30 a year ago and I am yet to trim it, these two have changed a little since the start due to lack of maintenance to be honest but they just survive. I am considering turning these into high tech tanks, but I am pretty lazy at the moment so we will see lol
 
Hi Paulo, where abouts in London are you based? I would love to see these in the flesh 🙂
 
South London, not far from Stockwell Tube, they are nothing spectacular, just very basic low maintenance tanks 😉
