    HI all

    I have recentley heard from a firend that you can put Clovers into your tank, is this possible or is there maybe just a aquatic plant that looks like clovers?

    Thanks

    Hi Oupoort. I wouldn't put the clover from your garden in your tank. I think the little bulbs would rot! The plant you were told about that looks like clover, is the Marsilea, there are a number of different types. Quadrifolia for example looks like a 4 leaf clover and is commonly called that. You can google Marsilea to see a few types that are used in our tanks. It's not comonly available in the stores though, so you may have to do a bit of asking around if you want some.
