As we are setting up our new 4ft tank we are getting to the plant stage of it now. Its going to be a bare bottom tank so i have bought some glazed ceramic pots to put the plants in, they are little bonsai pots. Is there anything in the ceramic or the glaze that would be toxic to the fish baring in mind that it is a kiln glaze?

i hope they arent because i got some nice little 3/4 urns that lie on thier side and some other cute little pots.

They're fine Woll. I have used them myself on occasion.

Just give them a good scrub with salt and hot water first :wink:

thanks ladyred, they are in soak at the moment, but only in cold water, thought i would water log them first.

You certainly are a fountain of knowledge :)
