    In Vitro Gel

    Thanks. Looks a bit more complicated than I'd hoped. May give it a go.

    In Vitro Gel

    Does anyone know what the gel tropica etc use in their in vitro cups is? Is it something like this? http://www.globalgrow.com/index.php?mai ... cts_id=301

    ID this for me please?

    Unfortunately it melted completely despite blasting it with CO2.

    Emersed plants for a nano

    Thanks all. Radik and Luis, what hygros specifically would you suggest, i.e. what's the smallest? Schruz, I saw the first post in your journal and have somehow managed to miss the rest :roll: What an inspirational thread. Will read properly again and come back to you with questions if that's...

    Emersed plants for a nano

    Hello all. Have had a 30x20x20 optiwhite nano lying around for a few months on my office shelf because health and safety say I can't fill it. Just got a new job elsewhere and noticed that there's a fish tank in the admin office so not going to ask health and safety this time :lol: Hasn't got...

    ID this for me please?

    I think it's plagiomnium trichomanes. Have just transferred some to my main tank. Let's see how it fares.

    ID this for me please?

    Sorry for the slow response. Been trying to get a better pic and have been failing. It does look a bit like submerged HC, particularly grown under low light, but isn't. Darrel, the leaves are moss like, quite translucent. It isn't Plagiomnium affine though. I have that and this has narrower...

    emersed growth

    Well done with the marsilea. I have some growing in a propagator and it is astonishingly slow. My ranunculus however has gone nuts.

    ID this for me please?

    Apologies, can't get a clearer shot as it is tiny. Moss like size. Found it growing in my propagator amongst some hydrocotyle and was about to chuck it out but then had a closer look and really like it. Anyone know what it is? A selaginella maybe? It's growing in 100% (more or less) humidity in...

    EI spray mix

    Thanks both. I'll give tank water a try first.

    EI spray mix

    Hi All, I know I have seen the answer to this question somewhere but my search skills are failing me. Question is: How much EI liquid mix do I add to how much water to spray my emersed plants? I use an Aquarium Plant Food UK pre-mix in my main tank and want to dilute this to spray. So, 1:10...

    Green aphids

    Thanks all. Whilst I am all up for natural solutions for these things I have to admit I'm going to go for Luis' chemical option. This is because a) it's easy b) it's less likely to end in a divorce. Trying to explain to the OH why I'm transporting alien bugs from the garden into the kitchen...

    Green aphids

    Hmm, intriguing Tom :idea: There's plenty of those in my garden.

    Green aphids

    Am growing some hydrocotyle in a tray on the window sill and noticed a couple of green aphids on it a few days back. Today there are tons on some of the plants- said plants are withering. Could anyone tell me the best way to deal with the little buggers?
