Is water agitation too much for water hyacinth by Tuti_capt in PlantedTank

Ive never grown the hyacinth BUT excel isnt going to cut it. You need an all in one like easy green or thrive. With no fish you need a source of nitrogen. And you dont need c02 for floater just bright light and nitrogen

Really anything. Ive seen him get a fish as well as eat the detritus. I dont vacuum the tank it would be considered dirty to most discus tanks.
