    Aquatic moss brown dead?

    I've got some really good spiky moss growing on in my breeder tanks, some on stones, some just sitting in the tank, it's growing great, nice and green. I removed some, divided it and put on stones...it's gone a golden brown colour. I think its dead. Does it ever revive or should I just get rid?

    Propagating java fern

    I have some little offsets on java fern leaves I want to propagate for my guppy breeder tanks. I want to grow them on a bit before putting them in their home tank. I'm torn between just attaching them to little rocks and growing them that way...or something I saw on you tube. They took the...

    Replanting crypts with long roots

    I have stripped down my tank, put new substrate in and replanted the various types and sizes of crypts. They have very long roots and keep floating up. Should I be trimming the roots? Any other tips? I hate how it looks today but know when they've established it will be just right.

    Guppy grass propagation

    I bought some "guppy grass" to try. It seems to be all leaf clippings. Will a new plant grow from just a leaf or does it need a length of stem? I can't see how singular leaves would grow. I have tried to delete the nestle file and cant :) I didnt remember it being there to upload!

    Dwarf hairgrass is unhealthy.

    Yellowish brown hairgrass. What's happening? It started so well in May. I'm using co2 and tropica premium nutrition. The substrate is tropica. I'm nervous it will rot and make tank conditions unhealthy.

    Bald patch on the lawn

    There is a patch on my dwarf hairgrass carpet that keeps getting dug up by Amano. It established and grew really well at first but isn't looking so good now. I replant this with bits from the back and it gets uprooted every time. I haven't changed lighting or ferts from when it was first...

    Java fern, what to do with offshoots

    See pic, in my 'scaped tank my java fern has offshoots on ends of leaves. Do I cut these off and propagate them or just leave them to grow on the top of each plant? If I leave them what will it look like?

    Aponogeton: ulvaceous and natans

    I bought some A. ulvaceous in bulb form, planted them in a pot and was amazed at the number of leaves that came. I did this with 3 bulbs and added each to a different angel tank. In one tank the plant is large, luxuriously furnished with greenery and completely untouched. In two of the tanks...

    Dry start - feeling a bit confused ...

    About 3 weeks ago I put some fluval shrimp stratum in a hexagonal tank, arranged my rockscape, planted some dwarf hairgrass and got some craft mesh and wrapped phoenix moss around it. I wanted to go for dry start, so I put in just enough water to cover the substrate, but as this is higher at...

    brown algae / diatoms on leaves of anubias

    I have decided that my problem with the anubias is brown algae. If you take the plant out of the water, rub leaves with a damp piece of filter floss, it comes off. I did this the other day, rubbed a lot off, but its building up again. My two anubias are now in my goldfish tank 240 litres...

    Brown edges of leaves, what does it indicate?

    I set up my new tank a few weeks ago using a mature filter from my old tank and transferred my stock across. I used new tetra plant complete substrate, covered with gravel from my previous tank. I also took bogwood and plants from my previous tank. Some of my plants, anubias mainly, are...
