::Plant it forward :: a RAOK like post

[ShortyKiloGyrl]

After being gone on vacation for 10 days a few of the plants are looking a little weak. I'm fertilizing them and trying a different light to help. I will include extras of other healthier plants including bacopa caroliana to make up for any possible plant loss I lost a few of my new plants while gone on vacation as well. Time to make another order since I will be home to care for them now. I may add or change if I can purchase another plant package before this RAOK posts is taken.

Hello,

Updated list: 09/26

Ammania gracilis
Sawtooth Hygrophila

I am rescaping my background. These 2 plants will be removed. At the end of the weekend they will be garbage. Sawtooth Hygrophila- I have been thining out and have aprox. 4-5 large rooted stems about 2'long and several beautiful small stems. Ammania gracilis - I just trimmed away all the large old stems and have aprox. 4-5 beautiful rooted cuttings.

If there is no taker by Sunday morning I will post a separate RAOK where there is no return obligation, just pay for shipping.

After Sunday I will toss the plants then update this thread with a new plant list.

Thank you

Argh, if only I had something to offer. I'd steal this one.

It's got the basics for low and medium light tank

 

[ShortyKiloGyrl]

It definitely does. I don't have anything to spare currently or else I would definitely be getting this. I will be stopping by the Aquarium Co-Op friday if all goes according to plan. So maybe I can pick up some plants there to do a swap with and get these. We will see. If someone grabs it before then, so be it.

I thought Id post this here, see if anyone would lend a hand if they have extras.
Im setting up a tank for my mom with plant substraight but really dont have much in the way of plants. Last time I tried uprooting something from my one planted tank It killed a lot of baby shrimp and made a terrible terrible mess.
Wondering if anyone has beginner plants they could send me/her. Its *currently* a 10 gallon with plant growing substrait: got it from a friend and dont remember what its called but its red and black, about 1/2 the size of standard gravel.
Just picked it up today and will probably fill it with water on christmas.

I am still holding the flame on this. I could put together a "beginner" package and send but you would then have to continue the Plant it Forward. The rules are stated on the 1st or 2nd page.

Let me know.
