They receive them and keep them and grow them further so you get a much bigger plant than normal!
Ah ok, makes sense, I've only ordered plants once before from a small seller so was unsure of any other way!
Cheers for the reply

in some cases they even growm them before shipping out.
My guess would be that it does.Does this only apply to mosses?
Good enough for me! Thank youHi all, My guess would be that it does.
cheers Darrel
If I was going to try to store some other plants it would be slow growing ones like Anubias and Bucephalandra.Good enough for me! Thank you
I'd go with that Darrel. The Eleocharis Acicularis Mini I bought in the same pots and at the same time would never have lasted that long.Hi all, My guess would be that it does.

Yes it does really. These are basically "plantlets" in a mini-glasshouse with all they need, the problems comes (with quicker growing plants) when they out-grow their nursery.Does this only apply to plants bought in the tissue culture pots though?..I've never bought these but from what i've read they're pretty much baby plants?
Some people would dry start smaller plants, but I usually just pop them in a tank and leave them floating until I need them.I'd like something bigger but not fully grown

Even plants like Cryptocoryne spp. you can do this and they will last pretty much indefinitely
Hi Aqua Essentials are pretty good but i think stocks are low everywhere at present. Also Swell. Just curious as i am quite new to this but do you ever leave the sponge or clay rings or pots on your plants when scraping? I have had some difficulty getting plants to stay down and not keen on using lead? CheersMorning all
Can someone recommend a site for me to source some Tropica plants from, Preferably a trusted one with good stock as i'm going to be re-scaping soon
Cheers
Just a thought what i have found good with aqua essentials they will Scape for You ie show selections with prices and provide guides for doing them, quite a good range and selections. I think that’s what I will be doing when i get my new tank. Enjoy@Fisher2007 yeah true, perhaps i'll have to wait Plants don't have to be specifically Tropica i just thought they'd be the best to start off with, i don't mind if they're from different suppliers as long as i get them from the same place to arrive at the same time!
How thick substrate layer are you putting down? You might need to add some more substrate so you can plant things down a little deeper with tweezers 😊, its been a fair few years since my last tank and im just getting back into it now, but I remember not having much luck if I had 2-3cm or less, I would usually have to have at least 5cm for things to stay unless they were lightweight stems like r.rotundafolia(spelt very wrong)Hi Aqua Essentials are pretty good but i think stocks are low everywhere at present.
