I am wondering what utrics people have used on the bottom of their aquariums, I have a stellaris tank that has U.uliginosa and dichotoma on the bottom. A pond with U.Bifida doing well on the bottom. And another pond where I am trialing U.Longifolia, livida and prealonga (so far praelonga has grown and the other 2 have done nothing).
So Uliginosa and Bifida work.
I have seen plenty of images of graminifolia working well, but what else works.
I would imagine that Bisquamata and subulata would work well, but I have not tried this so I can't confirm.
What utrics have you all used with success?

On a side note, can nelumbifolia be grown similiar to a water lily (attached to the bottom) with a depth of 10-15cm and a soil of sand/spag? Or is slurry/raised pot/bromiliad the only ways to go.

I have geminiscapa at the bottom but it just got there by accident since I think it normally floats just below the surface. I tried biloba but it died. Could you share pictures of your setups? I have some dichotoma growing emersed but I would like to try flooding it and then maybe putting it in an aquarium. Do you have any advice?

Dichotoma has done well in water less than 30cm with both peat covered with sand and spag/sand substrates, my underwater dichotoma also get alot of sun.

Here is a picture of geminiscapa growing on the bottom of my Utricularia tank.
