I have a sword plant that used to be a manageable size and stay in the tank (55 gal)....now it has decided that it doesn't want to stay in the tank anymore and all the leaves grow out of the water. This would be OK except that they hit the 96watt PCs (which are about the temperature of the sun) and get fried. All I have left in the tank are a bunch of very thick, sturdy stems. Is there any way to keep the plant underwater or should I give up?? (Anyone have a BIG paludarium??) I'd love to see what this plant could do if given the space!
Here's the upper parts of the stems in the tank.....(sorry about the plant jungle, the Ceylon refuses to stay rooted)
Here's the above-water view of fried leaves and a flower stalk. Yes, I cleaned the filter after taking the pic....
