@ MTS

That pic was taken in the middle of winter and I had a small dodgie heater that I put in ther its not on now couse it makes em breed to fast I am taking afew (about fifty) to the LFS next wednesday my mate said he would take the execess of my hands. I like the way they keep the algie down on the Java fern and it helps with the Anubias as well.

I sware its the Banana that dose it, the effect of the tea dont take long to be seen I did stop using it on the other fish for a while but kept it up on the VT girls and lots of water changes and my god they are huge when I get more giants I will try it on them as I do think it helps with the growth rate they are much biger than a male that was bought at the same time and had the same amount of water changes and food but no Banana tea but thats for another thread LOL

Cheers

Sorry got busy I have niece and nephew living across the road now so its gotten a bit hectic till they are trained a bit

Yes to subwassatang it grows like a weed

No to the Java fern it is conected to cotton and the cotton is conected to a stick under the gravel If I took a picture now you would see that some roots have made it to the gravel and have ancord it but the rizome is well above its just my crapy pics that dont show things quite that well

Sorry to go off topic but did you just use normal banana leaves? I'm going to plant some lady fingers so that could be my third use for them :) (permaculture thing)

Hey Matt, I thought I had posted on this, but must have been in my head. Not sure about Les, but I make my banana leaf tea for the bettas out of Lady Finger banana leaves.
