After some googling for pics I think you’re spot on that they are different species. I’m actually hoping one of them will start growing huge as my tank is fairly deep at 60cm+ and I left plenty of space. Of course I’ll still have to keep trimming it but I quite liked the way N. pubescens made...

Thanks for very thorough info! Unfortunately both of my bulbs are eBay wonders and what they might be is anyone’s guess. They do look different from each other, the new one has darker blotches (sorry, not very technical term) while the old one had uniform coloured leaves. In the pic you can just...

Thanks for the very detailed info! Suppose plants chosen for in vitro should be both easy to propagate in a lab and not too temperamental when added to aquarium. Not all of the individual crypt has melted which is probably good news so I’ll just keep waiting to see if they get around to the idea...

I used to have very prolific red Nymphea lily that would put out at least few leafs a week until it decided that enough was enough and kind of stopped. It didn’t die completely off but make one or two tiny leaves to keep ticking over. I’ve replanted in fluorite black substrate about 18 months...

I’m hoping the crypt will feel like growing in some point but has so far neither melted nor put out any significant roots in neither lowish or high tech tank. P.helferi is the most recent addition to lower tech tank and is just melting so I’m not holding my breath for its resurrection. I’m under...

Oh interesting! I have got very rampant growth from Helanthium tenellum Green in lowish tech and Alternathera reineckii 'mini' in high tech, ok from Micranthemum Monte Carlo, Nymphoides hydrophylla Taiwan and Hydrocotyle tripartita (Japan) and no luck with Cryptocoryne crispatula or Pogostomon...

I’ve been trying to increase plant species and density in both my low tech and high tech tanks. I noticed that some tissue culture plants do really well and some I get no luck at all from both low and high tech. Are there species that are inherently better if they come from in vitro pots and...
