Hi Phil,
I also live in an area with hard alkaline water and have had very good experience with the usual types of vallisneria, cryptocorynes, Java fern and the ubiquitous duckweed. (Not that I'm trying to grow duckweed...)

Hi Dave,
With it being winter the board has been quiet. I know Giancarlo has spoken lots on CO2 if you search past messages using the key words Giancarlo and CO2 you should find loads. His site is here: oops I see its down right now it says Google Crome has shut it down because of Malware being on it..
