Sagittaria subulata with just ferts and no co2?

[TetraUK]

Hi All,

I have been looking at buying 50 stems of Sagittaria subulata after looking at various planted set-up's on here, and think this would be a lovely plant to have around the cobbles in the foreground of my aquarium.

It seems that all the set-up I have looked at dose co2 and so I was wondering if this species would be ok in an aquarium without, that is only being dosed with a plant feed and weekly water changes?

Money is a bit tight at the moment, so I don't really want to buy a load if they are unlikely to thrive without the addition of co2 if not could anyone suggest a more suitable plant for the foreground

Cheers guys,

TetraUK

It might grow alright without CO2. I've kept it for years in my low tech without issues.

Hi clonitza,

Glad to hear that, think I will give a few plants a go in that case and see how it does.
