I got one of those packs a long time ago, only one bulb grew and it's actually one of the healthiest and better looking plants, I still have no idea what it is.

But if you're looking for plants and can pay online many member on here actually have many different kinds of plants for sale.

Im glad at least one grew and im excited and cant wait till i see little sprouts

Do you mean the aponegeton bulbs? If so its a great plant. I did half of them above gravel and half under gravel. Once they sprout put them in the gravel and it's on! They were my first plant and were very easy to deal with. My plants always melted with co2. If you see a long stick like leaf popping out its a flower or a new plant eventually sprouting out. Hope this helps

 

[Crewless]

Oh my i should get more plants then to absorb more co2 o.o i hope they dont melt o.o its only a 10gallon

 

[Atxpunx]

Do u have other plants in there?

 

[Crewless]

Nope but i want more plants but dont know where to get them

You can get an awesome amount of plants that don't need co2. My tank has swords, aponegeton, anacharis an java fern and no co2 oh and Singapore moss

I bought some last month. They start to sprout after a couple of weeks. Some, sadly don't if you're unlucky. If they don't, you can send them back to the manufacture and they'll send you a handful of fresher bulbs. Good luck !

This was my five gallon tank about a month after my bulbs started to grow. No co2 no ferts.

I've heard good things about those bulbs, but I've never been able to get one to sprout so, I gave up on them.

Gotta watch petsmart though... The dreaded snail... My local petsmart keeps their snails in the plant tank and I often get a breeding population...

same here but usually rinsing them in the sink and letting them float in the sink for 5-15 min has work out for me

The ones that do.slip through get relocated to my cichlid tank to live out their lives... Short as they may be in there.
