When I had Brazilian penneywort, I never had trouble growing it but I
never made much of an attempt to get it to root.
I just shoved the stems in the gravel and it grew up like a vine. When
the top became too heavy, it would pull out of the gravel and float.
Then I would rip off the bottom three inches and shove it back down.
If you want to make it crawl along the bottom, you'll have to be very
clever and persistant in weighing it down, or get it to grow through
something like maybe dense hairgrass or riccia.
I think Luis told me that Aqualine Buschke is a German company. I'm not
sure whether Luis is on this list but if he is he'll certainly answer.
If not, I'll e-mail him privately and frog-march him onto this list.

Dear Group, I've seen some pictures of Mr. Amano's tanks with
Brazilian
Pennywort. They looked really nice so I decided to give the pennywort a
try but
I've had difficulty keeping the pennywort rooted to the substrate. My
substrate is 100% Seachem Floralite. I also use Seachem plant tabs from
time to time.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Also in the last TAG issue, volume 18 number 2, on page 5 in the
article
entitled "Setting up a planted aquarium". The author mentions products
from a
company called Aqualine Buschke. Does anyone know any sites I can find
these?
Thanx-ILAN

A German company, Aqualine Buschke was combined with, or
absorbed by, or somehow corporately fused with a company
called Aqua Medic.
AB no longer maintains a website of its own, Aqua Medic's
website is here:
http://www.aqua-medic.de/index0.html
The CO2 stuff is listed here:
http://www.aqua-medic.de/index0.html
Some of the products have been sold under the AB name,
sometimes under the AM name. This will probably continue
until the old AB labeled stocks are depleted
Bigalsonline.com I believe still offers some of the
products, AquaBotanic.com does or used to offer some.
Customaquatic.com offers some.
If you can find a model name/number for an item on the AM
site you can google it and probably find a retail source.
Good luck, good fun,
Scott H.
