Aquarium Advice Addict
Hello,
A few weeks ago I was looking at plants at Petco. One of the employees (I am pretty sure he's a manager) gavemg me some of the ugly plants to "nurse back to health."
I'm pretty good with container plants and trees, but rhizomes are a whole new ball game. Most of the plants are doing fine, but not the ....um.... this one:
The rhizome was rotten, and I had hoped I'm could encourage the healthy leaves to drop new roots. Nope. As you can see, the stems are starting to rot.
I've been removing the little baby plants and setting them up to grow on their own. These guys:
I don't want to leave these leaves in my aquarium any longer, because I started to see some planaria. I don't want the seeds to go to waste, though.
I am a ceramist and have some bisque fired stoneware that would make a neat hardscape base. It would be really great if I could attach the seeds so that they grow directly on it.
If I can do that, how?
If I can't, how can I grow these seeds?
Thank you very much!
