Madagascar lace plant

Does any one in cape town have madgascar lace plant? Its really quite beautiful...

 

good luck keeping it alive if you actually get it - many of the forum mebers burnt their fingers badly with one of the sponsors and lace plants

 

Here is what i read about this beatifull plant.
Most people with luck do have not to hard water!
The plant is sensitive on bacteria and fungus!
The plant is probably sensitive on copper and other heavy metal!
The plant prefer a clean bottom material but still with some nutrient!

 

Yeah I've heard they are a bit more fussy than most, but i'm sorry to hear they are that bad :-(

 

Well, I know someone keeping 2 in a low tech tank with 2 x T5's and a flourite substrate. Dosing Dirk's Druppels and some Co2. They are doing very well.

 

yea and i know 5 guys/gals, including a shop with a lovely high tech tank who's plants jsut melted away days after getting it....

 

Should have know that was coming ...
