What about lighting. I've been planning similar plant filters, but
settled for a gutter pipe under the hood-packed with sponge- so that the
light tubes allow algae to grow on the surface-hopefully eating nitrates.
All my tanks are away from windows- can any of the mentioned plants survive
in low light conditions. I believe water cress may grow, and fit under the
hood- but I haven't tried this one yet.
