    Tiger Lotus Nymphaea Lotus

    I just bought a Spatterdock and it was similar,more woody though,a cut section of a rhizome.They're SIMILAR plants,but NOT the same.

    Growing spatterdocks

    Sorry to throw up such an old thread,but I've just bought one of these,for a two foot tank :shock: I like the idea of containing the roots,do you think the bottom of a plastic drink bottle would work? Ed,you don't happen to have any photos of yours in situ do you?

    splitting anubias

    This interests me too,obviously,if you cut off the growing end,that end still grows in that direction (I've planted a couple the wrong way round in hindsight!!),but what happens if you have two cut ends?

    fissidens fontanus - how fast does it grow?

    Haha,you actually inspired me to pull off the 'tufts' and tie them on today,had a bit of a play about at wc time.

    fissidens fontanus - how fast does it grow?

    I find it GROWS reasonably quickly (I have a no tech tank!!),but doesn't SPREAD quickly.It fills out really quick then starts to get a bit long in the 'middle' .I pull these bits off and tie them down near the original planting and the gaps soon fill in. Funny,I was having a really close look at...

    Which floating plant has very long roots?

    I got some amazon frogbit off Oatfish a while back which is starting to take off now,I'd say the roots were about 10cm just now and I think they add a real natural touch.My gouramis love hanging out in them,and I dare say,if they got too long,they'd be very easy to just lift out and chop them...

    Pearling after a water change? Why?

    Could you try filling the jug with tank water,doing a water change,letting the water settle for a few minutes then removing the jug.I'm fairly convinced it's air in the water being replaced as my plants are covered in bubbles after a water change.

    I would be very wary of anything copper treated if you have shrimp.

    Fissidens

    Maybe they just mean misty,drizzle and rain :lol:

    Toxic plants

    Copper was my first thought,didn't want to say though being a noob and all,especially when you said snails too.I've heard folks saying that they don't take well to Excel also.

    Can someone help confirm id on an Anubias please?

    Damn.Oh well,it's a lovely lush looking plant anyway and won't go wrong with two tanks to fill,looks like it could definitely be split too. Guess I'll have to buy a petite from one of the sponsors and then I'll know what it looks like!Terrible this,bought an anubias at PAH on Sunday,no label,but...

    Can someone help confirm id on an Anubias please?

    Hi there,I've just bought this plant as an Anubias Nana Petite,could anybody out there definitely confirm this?At the moment I just have photos,but once it arrives I can give leaf size etc.It's on a 4" long piece of bogwood,and has grown over the edges so that the total length of the plant is...

    where to get fissidens in the UK?

    Keep an eye on the Aquatic Gardening site.They HAD it very recently (they don't appear to have it just now),it's on the list for my tank too so I've been looking out for it.
