He did pm me about it but I live in Des Moines. Too far drive and not worth the shipping.

I have some of the dwarf stuff in my 140. It isn't getting a lot of light so the top is growing super slow. I am in the process of moving the plant into my 29 where nutrients and lighting are doubled. I thought it was dying since it wasnt growing much but the roots where magnifcent. So the plant must of been either establishing a root colony before exploding on top or the lack of lighting was dwarfing top growth, IDK.
Anyway, If it does well in my 29 I should have some to share in a month or two....

I'll check them out. Just gonna need a lot for my ground cover. So I'm checking all options nearest, free or cheap, but prefer any members whom has extras to spare for cheap or free.

Still very much a work in progress, waiting for a couple things to fill out before I move some things...
Definitely still filling in, it's actually probably ready to cut the tops off and replant. I started with about 6-8 little bunches and I've replanted the tops twice now I think? Only been about a month.
Black BN Pleco hiding under the rock there, you can see his bristles barely
O/T: whats a good picture width for posting pictures here? I'm an outlier with a multiple huge monitor setup, so I'd post 1600px wide pictures all day and not care, but I know that's a little big for some.

I am. But the ones I got from petsmart were awesome but I cut them too short to spread them out. Keep seeing them floating everyday. I believe the Mts are releasing them as they get out of the gravel cap (walstad tank). It depends on how short you cut them and well funds are short right now anyways. Just spent it at Midway for CRS and Phantom blue shrimps. So maybe next clippings. Thanks.

If you're still looking for some, I can easily clip the tops off and bag them up...

I did that too with a couple plants. The root system is a tough one to replant. Wonder if i could weigh it down a bit with something? Perhaps glue to a small rock?
