Timmer,

Many plants do not do well with UGF's because people do not put enough
gravel on top of the filter plates. And UGF should have 1 1/2 inch to 2
inches of gravel on top of the plates, and RUGF need about 3 inches. Most
people do not want to put that much gravel in their tanks.

I would be hesitant about planting a tank with with a UGF (Under ground
filter). From what I understand, most plants do not do well with a UGF...

Vik,

I think the fish find it entertaining pulling on the plants. They can
also use the plants to hide behind when they are edgy.
