plant beginner

Hi, I have a very sad looking 200l Fluval Roma which I'd love to make a jungle of plants. I've got a 70cm piece of "talava" (?) wood which is soaking in a tub at the moment. It should take a few weeks to let it sink I think. As for plants, I'm not experienced with plants at all really. I don't...

Hi , i’m rather new to fish keeping and i’m going to downsize my tank from 125l fluval to an 80L super fish tank but in my current tank (125) i haven’t got many live plants but in my new 80L i’m getting i want to have more live plants. So my question is how do i go about this? What soil do i...

Hello, I am trying to DSM some monte carlo for the first time. I bought potted MC from buceplant and currently have them in a 10 G almost fully wrapped (corners are open for exchange) and under high light for 12 hours with misting 2-3 times a day. However, it seems like some of the plants are...

I'm worried. I've just got a 200l tank and I have no idea what to plant in it. I want plants that dont need co2, easy and shrimp & snail safe. I've got a list of plants I would really love to own Cryptocoryne Wendtii Cryptocoryne Willisii Cryptocoryne Beckettii Java Moss Ceratophyllum Demersum...

Hi guys, I have a 36 gallon tank and was wondering what do you guys normally do/how is it suppose to be done when adding a new plant that wasn’t living in a co2 tank and transferring it into one that I dose daily with liquid co2. If that even makes sense? It’s a Madagascar lace Unfortunately...

These are plants that I receved from a friend when I first made my aquarium. He didn't knew wheir name either.

Hey, some time ago I bought a few plants and I forgot what they were exactly. They are all types of rotala but it's a bit hard to realise which one they are since they changed color in my aquarium (probably the light spectrum).

Hey guys, a got a low tech 10 gallon tank that gets daily fertilizers and I also got a diy co2 injection going on. From what I see most of the plants are doing quite well but I'm not sure if I should let them get so long. I believe that the rotala rotundiflora, coin leaf, macrandra mini and...

Hey! My husband and I have just set up our 64l tank and it is currently completing it's fish-less cycle. I have gone on **Advisor to try and figure out a good set up for our first small tank. We are planning on: 6x Guppies 5x Dwarf Cory 1x African Dwarf Frog (Not the clawed kind!) 2x Mystery...

I’ve been trying to remember what this plant is. I bought it a month ago and can not remember. I’ve been looking up everything I can think of with no luck. If anyone has an idea please help ?

Hi everyone, I've recently put a java fern plant attached to bogwood in my aquarium. I've just noticed today ( just over 1 week later putting it in) thatthe roots and some leafs are growing this white fuzz? Can anyone identify what it is and how to get rid of it? FYI I haven't got any fish in...

Hey guys I'm new to the world of aquarium plants so I just bought a few bulbs to put in my bettas tank. This one has taken off! It has about two new shoots everyday and just stretches towards the light then develops a little leaf that floats on top. I'd like to research more about it but cant...

I just got 2 Marimo moss balls because they r beautiful & low maintenance live plants. I have no other live plants in my tank so I'm hoping these work out. Currently they r washed & put in a jar for a couple weeks because I'm paranoid to put them in my tank with my fish. I was wondering if...

Hello! Could anyone please suggest any live plant that would be good for a 25 litre tank with 2 mollies and 2 platties? I do not have any CO2 system and have a substrate made of small stones, so I would like a plant that is hardy and does not need much.

Wondering if you guys can help identify problems with my planted tank. Completely low tech, plants have always done well and Anubias even flowers occasionally. I have never dosed anything however my stocking level is probably about half what it used to be so maybe thats it? Pic of anubias...

Hi, everyone! I'm relatively new to the fish community. After a fairly sad experience, due to inexperience and overstocking (and unexpected breeding, which led to further overstocking), I've decided that if I really would like to have fish in my life, I need to make sure they're being cared for...
