Post by Vandraco aka Bronzecat on Sat Oct 24, 2009 4:32 pm

Won some plants on Ebay yesterday......100 plants for £19.95 inc postage. I will see what they are like when they arrive, buy even if some of them are poor, i should still have got a bargain?

Yay they arrived
There are loads & loads, and all look in pretty good condition & health:)

I dont know what some of them are yet, but i recognise Vallis, Swords, Elodea, Cambomba. There are Ferns, Palm type ones and a weird one with a large leaf that extends both ways from the top of the stalk?

I have just popped them in the tank to get an idea of there heights so I can plant properly once they have opened and settled Gave them a nice feed too:)

Definately good value

Hi I know this is an old thread but what do you feed plants on? I have a plant which is about 10 months old which is covered in little brown needles, any ideas?

is it java Fern?
These 'needles' are most likely to be baby plantlets and will slowly grow leaves, which will then fall from the mother plant to the substrate. It will start to grow. Very Happy

Hi
I use EasyLife carbo & EasyLife Profito. I use the Carbo every other day and the Profito once a week. Its important with the Profito not to over dose though.
I also have Seachem Flourite mixed with the black sand.
