Green Ricordia

Hi!

I'm thinking about purchasing a green ricordea for my tank. I'm trying to read up and do my research, unfortunately I'm finding a lot of conflicting info. The info I'm looking for is whether they prefer high lighting or low lighting high flow or low flow. I have areas of high light and low light and high flow and low flow, so no matter what it won't be a huge issue, was just hoping I could get some advice as to where I should start it out.

Thanks!

Moderate light and moderate flow. I keep mine in the upper 3rd of my tank, I have 2x96 watt pc's. They are doing great.

They are actually pretty easy to keep and add a ton of color. I'm adding some blues next!

i keep mine in the sand and i think they open up the most closer to the bottom.
