Utricularia graminifolia

Anyone have experience with this plant?

[fishman1]

the only experience I had was that I was about to order it then I didn't. Heard that it was carnivorous? Makes a very nice lawn needs high lighting and co2 when it is overgrown you really need to trim it otherwise it will just float to the top. Kinda expensive

Looks good but a bia to plant and imo almost like riccia

So . . . If I was to start up a planted tank . . . and try to be a little different than everyone else . . .

Is there anything that you especially do/don't like about this plant as opposed to alternatives?

A high tech tank with erios and tonina belems, all the baller, hard to keep plants!

this is my first time with any plants and to me it grows pretty fast and roots well too. i have co2 and decent lighting and I've already trimmed it twice since setting up the tank, which i believe is like almost a 2 months time and I'm about to trim it again soon!

i grew it emersed. but as soon as i filled the tank, algae caked over them and they die. i'm sure it was due to the lack of co2 and differences in lighting after i filled the tank.

this is one of those absolutely no way, no how, will anyone grow submerged without co2.

[fishman1]

After it is grown emmersed and u fill the tank u have to add so much co2 and then you have to slowly add less and less co2

I don't know if I want to add any lead to my aquarium... seem like a hazard.

sorry I meant to type less and less
