I know its not an Amazon plant, but peoples thoughts would be nice, i am starting to think its not good for a Discus tank, it tends to shed lots of bits, and they are really hard to gather up, now my guess is that the bits would be an additional strain on the bioload, any thoughts or theories ?

ive seen a few tanks with thick bunches of ambulia, looks really nice. i had camboma and that shed leaves a bit, they floated though so either got sucked up by the filter or i could scoop them out.

Don't get me wrong they are a lovely plant and across the back of a planted tank, look fabulous and are a great for refuge for smaller fish, the rams love it :) it just seems there are always leaf parts floating around the water ... then again maybe my filter layout is not the most effective
