- Once upon a time my local fish store carried a cute little plant that
- looked just like a little pine tree. Upon closer inspection I
- thought: "Hey, that looks just like Princess Pine!" Princess Pine,
- sorry I don't know the latin, is a small, vinelike, TERRESTRIAL plant.
- I guess some people don't care about growing plants in their tanks and
- just want some green for a little while. Go back to that store in a
- few weeks and take a look at that pine plant, if it's the same plant
- that my store tried to sell it will be nasty and brown. Ugh. As for
- care of it, well, I'd guess some nice acidic, moderatly moist forest
- floor would do it just fine! I say save your money for a REAL aquatic
- plant.
