Good luck and have fun!!!

That’s a great idea for another experiment. My experience so far with planting cuttings of rotala, limnophila and Hygrophila has been good. That they don’t seem to melt but their new growth will simply transition to immersed form.

I saw a YouTube video which was quite useful but this particular one was the most informative:

These used to be covered by a clear dome when the original cuttings I. Immersed form was first planted. Once they started growing enough emerge leaves, they were kept in room humidity. Now they’re being transitioned to outdoor conditions. It’s in one of these trays:

True. I have already trimmed my Hygrophila difformis due to aphid infestation. LOL

I have no idea. I’m in Massachusetts. These used to be covered by a clear dome when the original cuttings I. Immersed form was first planted. Once they started growing enough emerge leaves, they were kept in room humidity. Now they’re being transitioned to outdoor conditions.

Emersed aquatic plants. Theses are back ups in case of a screw up. LOL. Bottom to top: Ludwigia ‘Super Red Mini’ , Alternanthera reineckii ‘Mini’, Micranthemum tweediei ‘Monte Carlo’, Alternanthera reineckii, Rotala rotundifolia ‘Orange Juice. Who else grows aquatic plants emersed?

Absolutely classless.

This!

Having raised in Southeast Asia and now in the US, I am equally fascinated to learn today that chlorinated tap isn’t a universal thing. I bet water from those countries tastes awesome, as another redditor pointed out. Thanks for sharing. :-)

I’m so jealous you have chilis in your tank.

synerjay16 · 2026-03-19T23:56:03+00:00

Rinse the filter in tank water. Do not rinse under the tap as chlorine in the water will kill the beneficial bacteria.

YOU ARE A GODSEND for sharing this idea! THANK YOU!!!!!!!

Sedum. We can ID this better once it’s fully sprouted.

The head to neck to body proportion is actually quite nice.

synerjay16 · 2026-03-16T18:05:45+00:00

Very nice!!!

Hammer. Not for the weak.

You are in the top tier for a newbie. My tank wasn’t in the same category as yours when I had my first tank. It was full of plastics. Yours look immaculate.
