Hi Everyone,
This evening I bought 3 plants for my planted tank.
Yup! I have fallen victim to planting more and more plants.
My mind tells me “STOP! Your tank already looks like a jungle!”
But my heart says “Go head! Enjoy. Life is short, man!”
OK, silly jokes apart, the shop where I bought doesn’t have a clue on what type of plants these are. The plants were sold in plastic bags filled with water so I assume that these are 100% aquatic ones.
I have attached the photos here.
Can some kind members please identify these and maybe share your knowledge on the requirements and due care these plants deserve.
When I brought them home, I rinsed them in running tap water for some time and then put them a small open plastic container with de-chlorinated water. I have checked them for snail eggs and they passed the test. The only big concern is the pesticide used on these plants. Can you advice on how long one should wait before these are safe enough to be planted in the tank.
Thanks and Cheers.
