I've had this happen often with various mosses and liverworts - and exactly the same experience with fissidens fontanus regrowing from wood that was dried and in the dark for at least a year. I think in the case of the riccardia and some others tiny fragments can settle in some dark corner of...

Is that moss what they call "bucephalandra moss"? if so how do you find it does emersed? I have a tiny, tiny piece about the size of a 5p coin that looks like this which I've been trying to grow out for months and I recently switched it to emersed growth hoping to speed things up but it seems to...

Absolutely amazing. Can you tell us how you made the dripwall tank? is that fake rock or crushed rock attached to some kind of foam?

I don't have american frogbit but I've found that flow has a massive impact on the growth form and root length of water lettuce. With no/minimal flow it grows large rosettes and the roots stretch all the way to the substrate but increasing flow and/or redirecting it across the surface seems to...

I've also grown helvola in an aquarium and it did very well planted in aquasoil. I don't know how necessary a winter dormancy period is because I was only growing it out from a small piece of rhizome before I moved it into an outdoor pond but it thrived for many months in an aquarium. Even these...

That's some kind of leech. Although there is a chance they could prey on shrimp or snails I think probably they will be in interesting addition to your kids ecosystems with a lot of scope for additional learning. The fact that some leeches suck blood might be engaging for them and you could...

I did not know you could do this! but i just tried it and the auto translation was hilariously indecipherable

Just look at that coconut cave!

I found a really interesting youtube video in spanish about cadophora moss balls. The guy has had some incredible results getting moss balls to attach to wood and stone hardscape and even grow across them like moss and he shows some pretty striking and impressive before and after images. I would...

I wonder how they harvest them so cleanly en masse for prepacked livefood sales?

Here is last nights batch of eggs. They've begun hatching but by this evening that small volume of water will be a seething mass of tiny white larvae.

At this time of year you should be able to find eggs too. It can be mutch easier to remove a mass of eggs and let them hatch in some tank water. I'm feeding a ton of mosquito and midge larvae at the moment because each night I go and collect eggs from the garden. The midge eggs round here look...

Just a heads up for anyone who has a wormery that it's mosquito season. Not everyone is aware of this but mosquitos are INCREDIBLY attracted to the leachate that many wormeries allow you to drain off via a tap. At the moment I have a bucket of it that I leave out next to the wormery and every...

You could go for triops, they're very cool and if you manage to get eggs of one of the rarer or larger species off ebay then you could breed to sell although not for a great deal of money, you could also adapt the tank for growing your own organic mushrooms and sell them to any local delhi's...

Outside inside aquatics in Haddington sells a a range of Dennerle products including plants, the Nano tanks and accessories. I bought a 20l kit and the crysta-line pressurized co2 system and i am very happy with my purchase.
