[AGA Member] Marsilea carpets

[Roger Miller <roger@spinn.net>]

Is there any way to maintain a marsilea carpet in good, attractive conditions 
more-or-less permanently?

I've had dense Marsilea carpets in a couple tanks now and they eventually get 
overgrown and clogged with algae.  Different algae, different times.  The 
longest I have been able to maintain a carpet I was meticulously vaccuuming 
the carpet and picking through it by hand every week.  Been there, done that 
and refuse to do it again.  It this just my problem?

Are other carpets (e.g. glossostigma and dwarf hair grass) subject to the 
same problems?
