Hello out there. Is there a thread somewhere on what a person should do when they have just purchased/received a shiny new plant?
To make sure it is pest free.
Kill any harmful fungus or bacteria.
Avoid adding new types of algae to their tank.
I have seen various scattered posts on H2O2, potassium permanganate, bleach soaks or salt. But it would be great if we had a sticky that combined everyone's preferences and why along with the specifics and details someone can follow.
I suspect my method of being an overly excited new plant mom and promptly adding it to my tank and crossing my fingers isn't really the best approach.
