A couple of months ago I added some live plants into my tank, but they just haven taken off at all. They instantly got covered in algae and just look unsightly now. Mr bristle nose is happy chomping on the algae but the plant really isn't contributing anything to the tank.
I'm not sure what it is, it looks like blades of plain grass and they were bound together. The bloke told me they would start to root and then new blades would come p through the gravel. I don't actually think it was an aquatic plant at all.
So I'm off to the fish shop this morning for a couple of green barbs and some plants - can you suggest any plant names for me to ask for, or signs that a plant is not right for my tank?
Thanks!
