Hey Bill! My watersprite always grew very well in my soft water, but I really don't think it is a specifically soft water plant. Temp is usually around 77, but I have in right now in a ten gallon at 70 degrees as well. I do use Co2, however (depending on the tank either DIY or pressurized).
problems with watersprite
Hi folks,
Just wondering about those of you who are successful in growing watersprite
what your water parameters are: ph, hardness, temp, etc. When I was in Maine it grew great, but now that I live in Alabama, it withers at a gaze ](*,)
Also would like to know what a safe method (fishwise) is in lowering the ph--
specifically a method not peat-based. I keep killies and watersprite is like the
canary in a coal mine: if it's looking good, the fish are happy, too!
Thanks in advance for any advice given,
Bill Ruyle
