Live Assorted Aqua Plant Bulbs

[Crittercaller]

Mozcheez, if they don't sprout just send them back and they will send new ones. Sorry to hear about the ich

 

[mozcheez]

Oh it's okay, there is still plenty of time! They've only been in water for 4 days Remember I only just started this thread Thursday!

Yeah the back of the package does say this but i decided to toss my receipt and empty box in the trash. That was the first time i have ever tried them so i didnt think that they wouldnt work. Is it common for theses bulbs to not grow. I mean like all 4. Not one of them did anything but grow fungus.

There's a chemical that you can put in the water to combat fungus that's safe for fish (it's used to keep fungi off of fish eggs) I think it's called methane blue or something, but I also heard that there's other chemicals you can use too, but I forget what they were. I'll check and see if I can find the names ^^

Oh and crittercaller! Great pics! You should get a close up of that flower you were talking about too how're the onions doing anyway? Still green?

 

[mozcheez]

I know it's only been 5-6 days, but it feels like an eternity! I'm ready to see some sprouting

 

[Crittercaller]

Flower is very weird looking and the onions are still green and growing.

 

[alia258]

Get a pic of the flower! I'd love to see the "weirdness" !!!

 

[Crittercaller]

Here's a picture!!! It's weird!!!

 

[alia258]

Could it be growing seeds?

 

[Crittercaller]

I don't know its weird!!!

 

[alia258]

Keep an eye on it!

 

[Crittercaller]

I will, there is a second one growing now. These things grow super fast, I would say about 4 inches a day

 

[mozcheez]

Wow that is really fast growth!

I found this: aquarium_plant_crinum_thaianum

Sounds like flowers for sure!

 

[Crittercaller]

The second flower stalk is five inches short of reaching the surface!!!!

Could it be growing seeds?

No that's actually gonna be a flower I'll find a pic

 

[Crittercaller]

Sweet!! What kind of plant is it?

 

[Fishandmusic81]

Sweet!! What kind of plant is it?

It's one of those bulbs you have I planted one and I've had it for a few months and it'll randomly sprout flowers

 

[Crittercaller]

[alia258]
