12 Plants According to the natural habitat – brooks and small rivers – the number of plants should be limited. However, it is not advis- able to go entirely without plants as plants break down pollutants. Furthermore, espe- cially juvenile crustaceans will find hide- aways and, due to the settling micro organ- isms, an excellent food source. Java fern, vallisnerias, moss balls and dif- ferent moss species such as Java moss are to be mentioned as especially suitable. The number of plants suggested here can be altered according to your personal taste. For example, a background consisting of Java moss can look extremely attractive. When scheduling the plant arrangement, please consider that the purchased plants are not fully grown yet. 6 Vallisneria 1 – 2 Java fern 2 – 3 Moss balls Java moss according to taste Java fern (Microsorium pteropus) Moss ball (Cladophora aegagrophila) Vallisneria Java moss (Vesicularia dubyana) 12 V1 V2 M1 H1
