Plant Donations

[ace61502]

I'm redoing my aquascape and I'll be getting rid of some of my plants. I don't want to throw them away, but they're fairly young plants and with my low wattage bulbs they're not in pristine condition. They're not dead mind you, but I figured I'd offer to send them to someone.

I'm located in South Carolina, USA..

I've got 4-5 stems of Wisteria, one tall grassy crypt (don't know the name), two green crypt wendtii, a few small amazon swords, and what I think is Red Ludwigia (it came from Petco in the little white packages if anyone else has seen them..). I may have a few stems of pennywort too, and I've also got a small pot of dwarf grass I bought from petco but never even took out of the pot..

Let me know if you're interested in any or all of these.

I'll try to take a picture tomorrow when I'm done rescaping..

I'm not trying to beg, but if anyone wants to swap I'm looking for italian vals or small anubias like "barteri eyes" or "nana". And I hope I'm not breaking the rules with my low post count.. I'm obviously offering plants, not asking for them.

I'd be interested in anything grassy.

I can do that if you remind me, brain like a sieve, allow plenty of time the post in the uk get worse by the day, how many plants do you want, i would suggest 3 incase one doesnt take but you can have more if you wish, they seem to multiply by sending up new shoots through the gravel so if they do well in your tank like mine you will have lots in a few months, i dont have co2 or any special lighting so cant see why not. di

They arrived on Thursday, in-law's luggage got lost in Amsterdam on the way over, but was found today, so I've got them now! They look excellent, I was rather surprised by how rubbery the leaves were… I am not 100% sure that these are even Crypts, I'm starting to think that they may be more related to swords… fingers crossed that they do well for me! I'll have yours sent out on the 17th

thanks for the comment kat, im glad they arrived ok, you may be right about their origins, i was sent a couple by a kind aquarist and now i have quite a few, they tend to bunch low down and have big leaves, so you need them middle/front. di

Will be getting rid of some HC (about 5 pots worth), some Lilaeopsis (2 pots worth) and some Staurogyne (about 2 pots worth). Ideally I'd like to swap for some stems if anyone is interested? I'm in the southeast. Can post.

Hiya matey.

I alas have nothing of real interest to swap, (apart from a chunk of already soaked mopani wood??? - ita nice, but doesnt fit in with the rest of my tank) but id happily pay u for the HC and the Lilaeopsis?

Pm me a price and we'll see

I've got some stems, not entirely certain what they are, but I can take a pic to pm you if you'd like. They're just taking up room in the garage at the moment, and need a bit of tlc. I'd love to swap for staurogene please.

 

[fishyfeet]

me too, ive loads of stems to swap, di

 

[Ps3Steveo]

Ok guys pm me what stems you have or put up pics please

P.S the staurogyne isn't in the best shape, it keeps suffering melt in my tank but keeps shooting new leaves tho.

 

[coldcazzie]

It's the stuff at the back here. The leaves are sometimes red, sometimes green. I can take a current pic as well if you'd like?

Point taken, but that one is still relevant ;D

 

[fishyfeet]

does it matter, if anyone (apart) from you is happy

I believe it does matter, because the whole idea of this thread is regarding donations/swaps, if you introduce currency and payments into it, then the whole thread might as well be in the classifieds section.
