very tiny :D but the mother plant is sooo not recovering from the algea attack :( so I have 3 clippings, these are my first plant clippings so I hope they grow and thrive! if they do I can get more :D
 
I don't think they even fit the definition of a "clipping"! :) j/k They are small but should do fine. Depending on how much current you have in the tank, 1 of the 3 floating might grow quicker. Also you might want to space them out a bit more in case you do get another algae outbreak. I tend to find that algae at the beginning stages are normally contained to a particular area and will travel across the tank, so having the clippings spread out would allow you to salvage 1 or 2.

We gotta get you some more clippings!

How far away is TN from PA? :)

oh clippings would be a BLESSING :D :wink: PA is like.... oh I have no clue LOL never been their,..let me go look it up :D
 
I had a fish break up my repens and I had a bunch of tiny tips like that, I suggest using weights instead of sticking them in gravel so they'll be "taller" :p You can also then put them on top of something (like a taller plant if you use a small piece of weight)
