I have tried them in my tropical tank. In fact, that's all I have along with a couple of dwarf lilies. They are quite easy to grow and take care of. All you do is just drop them in and they should start to sprout within a week, sometimes less than 24 hours. Here's a picture of my tank a couple of months after I put the bulbs in. The second one is sometime later after a pruning and some of the plants produced seedlings.

Thanks for the info. I have seen those at the lfs and always wondered if they really would grow anything. Yours are beautiful. I might get some for Zeke's new tank when I upgrade it in a couple weeks.
