    In-vitro stem plants failing

    That's where I have it. Circulation was stuck to left side before but spray bar fixed that. I can see the micro bubbles moving around tank and have good sway everywhere so don't think its circulation.

    In-vitro stem plants failing

    I have read something similar. Only seems delicate stems like ludwigia is affected. I planted pogestomon erectus from culture a week ago and that has grown thick and 4 inches already

    In-vitro stem plants failing

    I'm having real trouble growing certain stems only available in-vitro and repeatedly failing but really want these plants. Plants are ammania sp. Bonsai, ludwigia H'ra and Ludwig Guinea. The plants start of well then start to melt away from the bottom up. I think the problem is related to...

    Drop Checker with Inline Reactor

    Thanks Foxfish. Yes they are thin on the ground and I could only find two available in UK which dissolve the CO2 neither of which are branded and come from Asia. I have seen references to other brands in the forum, JBL etc but looks like these are discontinued probably because they are not...

    Drop Checker with Inline Reactor

    I suppose the specific question I am trying to answer is, is a drop checker an effective method for checking CO2 when the CO2 is completely dissolved in the water with a external inline reactor? As I understand, the purpose of the inline reactor is twofold. 1. With traditional in-tank bubble...

    Drop Checker with Inline Reactor

    Mixing Eleocharis acicularis and Eleocharis acicularis mini

    Hi Simon, thanks for the response. It is the curve aesthetic I want, more of a wild meadow look then a garden lawn look if you know what I mean. The mini I have curves straight away which I really like and has a soft feel whereas the standard acicularis goes straight up and has a wirey feel...

    Mixing Eleocharis acicularis and Eleocharis acicularis mini

    Hi, first post so you please be gentle. I have a bad feeling I made a mistake. After weeks of planning for the bank holiday last weekend I planted my first scape. Last thing on list was to order plants to arrive for the weekend. I have a dwarf hairgrass carpet but could only get 3 in vitro so...
