So- those of you that don't have a Pothos plant on their fresh water tank... My question is why the heck not!?!
I was sitting down in front of my fish desk, this is a 125 sitting on 2x4simple frame-4" off the floor with a keyboard tray serving as a laptop stand. My man cave place to relax. It has a simple overhead 3' DIY filteracross the back 6" with a pump in tank and a planter box with ceramic media and a spray bar running 2/3 the length. The other 1/2 has a 10G bow front plastic tank that I drilled and plumbed in an overflow. In this sump I keep dirt from empty earth worm containers and plant material from pothos trimmings. It is fed by a Cascade 1500 canister filled with nothing but bio media. This tank is now home to 9 fat n happy silver dollars and a newly acquired black Ghost knife...I know hes still in there, I can see the white of his stubby tail(look in Knife subforum for more info on the stub)...
Pictures worth a thousand words... This Pothos *tree* is growing out of my 10G bow.
You can see the corner of the laptop even! lol
A couple more of this 6' tall growth...now this is 1/2 my fish room... this goes up to the ceiling -over 6' - and loops back to this trunk. The other heated tanks have similar growth in them...
The fish never cooperate for pics. But you get the idea.
The biggest 'trunk' from my heated tank is roughly 1" diameter!
What more can I say but...
"GO BUY SOME POTHOS!!"
