Haha, thanks for the warm welcome. I don't have much, as I'm a beginner, but I won't need all of those plants since I have a 7-gal tank. I'll put up the ones I don't have room for as the next offering.

Does that work for plant it forward?

Amazon sword is going to outgrow the 7 gallon tank in one season. The idea is to introduce something new or unusual but it is not required. Something everyone wants even if it isn't unusual is fine. Forwarding the last list is not something usually done althought I did add something to my list that was from a previous donar simply because he gave so much. The other thing is you can negotiate and only accept what you need but that is not the most courteous thing to do. You'll get slack instead of flack because you're a newbie.

Without backtracking to the "said" rules or requirements , if remembered correctly there is nothing said about species or quantity, only quality.

I've been watching this project for a while and previous interactions made this seem not only acceptable, but not frowned on at all. There were also a few people mentioning they weren't claiming the offer only because they had done so recently, not because they weren't interested. I'm planning to offer up the plants I can't use because I knew others would be able to use and enjoy them. I do have a couple I can add, but, as I said, it's a small tank and I'm a beginner. I was hoping this being based on RAOK would also give me a little more acceptance…

Absolutely good to go. I was having an off day and I apologise. I did not wish for you to feel unwelcomed. Any offering is fine.

Crazy busy yesterday, today, and tomorrow, but I did receive the plants and they look great. I'll figure out which ones I'm passing forward and put up the list as soon as I can. Thanks so much, Nick!

Hello everyone, thanks for waiting. I'm sending off the same list as Nick, but with one addition:

 :!: Dwarf water lettuce  :!: 
Monosolenium tenerum 'Pelia'
Willow Moss
Jungle Vallisneria
Java Fern
Water Sprite
Hornwort
Amazon Sword
Guppy Grass
Green Temple

I took small amounts of the willow moss, java fern, and green temple. I know someone else was interested in the willow moss and green temple, so I made sure not to take it all. :) 

The rest would've just taken over my tank too quickly (the dwarf water lettuce creates enough maintaining as it is).

Whoever claims it first will have it shipped to them on Monday.  :beer:
