Iodine. Unless it's a more exotic variety, stay away from it. It's just like shrooms, you'll regret your success. It's ugly and grows like a weed. IMHO

With all the glue and silicone you used, I suspect you are like me. You over did it. No-one can get in the peanut butter jar after I have closed it. Tightening a bulkhead too much will cause warping...

Ricordea are not very fast growers, they won't overun your tank. Just be sure to pick the prettier varieties because if and when they do split, you can sell 'em or trade 'em. Smooth mushrooms, no...

I've never heard that. If it's the common, pumping type of xenia, it's a good indicator of your water quality. A canary in a coalmine so to speak. If it stops pumping, your water is lacking...
