  • Wanted: Looking for hornwort

    I'd like to get a bunch of hornwort quickly, if possible. My 75g is going through a mini-cycle, and I want the hornwort to help it get through the process. I've used it before with great results.

    The only caveat is I don't want a bunch of snails, most especially MTS.

    Let me know if you have any or if you know of any place selling it. Thanks!
    Vicki

          Okay, thanks. I was hoping for something not from the wild. Looks like I'll have to manage things without it.

                    Thanks guys. I think I may not need it. Tests indicate 0ppm ammonia and nitrites this morning so it may have ben just a tiny blip. I'll keep an eye on things, and if it looks like I still need the plants, then I'll check out petco and petsmart (shudder LOL).

                      Aquarium World usually has it.

                        Thanks, CrazyCat. I may run over there if it looks like I end up needing it after all.

                              Thanks, I didn't see this until now. I'm just barely getting a blip of nitrites so I'm going to be okay. I think I'm handling the worst of it so I should be fine without the hornwort. But thanks for offering to help. That was really nice of you!
