kenya tree with high flow

Hi guys, recently I just got a kenya tree, abouy 3 - 4inches tall. It's been in my tank almost a week.

There is no issue with it from what I seen.

I place it on my sandbed, on a spot with indirect high flow area, where its constantly waving around.

My question is does indirect high flow will stunt it grow ? Or in long term it is not good for it ?

Hi Foxngn.... My trees do best under mild water flow. In fact Saturday I did a tank re-arrange and my prize tree was in the direct line of one of the jets. I just now moved the jet so that its not blasting it. The trunk is about 3/4" thick and about 12" tall when fully extended.

My have grown so much that I now frag them attach them to some rocks and sell them back to the LFS for a store credit

High flow will likely cause it to frag itself quicker than normal. If you want a tiny forest then high flow is what you want. Otherwise you should have it in a low to moderate, indirect flow.

well, i don't mind that it grow like a weed as long as it is healthy.. :P

Here is the position of my kenya tree, on the bottom left of my tank. While my wavemaker is on the middle top.
