Nice Jason. Will those plants grow to the top?

blazeyreef · 10-22-2007, 10:57 AM

some will... like the spiral vals and the anarchis, but the java fern, moss and crypts more than likely wont.

Knowing you, Mr Pond, it will be full by tomorrow with rich, luxuriant growth. Nice tank-what are the dimensions?

Looks great, I can't wait to see the progress as they grow in.

lol, the planting process is not done yet. I am hoping to get some ludwigia of some sort aswell as a few other plants.

The vals will not grow to the top because they are the 'mini twister' variety. The anarchis is just getting rotted in there where it will be planted in my breeder tanks. I think the stuff looks crummy when used in a scaped tank.

And i forgot to mention... if anyone has some plants they want to share with me they can go right ahead

:P

Dimensions are 36x18x18. Nice size tank.

Some of the crypts will grow bigger, but not huge.
