Fishies_in_Philly · 06-15-2012, 12:07 AM

here's my pics....added some of the nana to the dsm tank. also added a couple other things, like 2 c. nurii plantlets, some stringy moss, 2 syngonnthus sp. 'belem' nubs, elatine triandra, bolbitis, and trident java fern. ok, so some of the stuff has been in here a week or so, just haven't gotten around to taking pictures.

the whole reason for the dry start, the fissidens is starting to wake up and take over my rock, yay!!

Thanks

Sounds good. Let me know how everything turns out.

How's everyone's anubias doing? Just wanted to check because I've had a handful melt away on me and wanted to know how everyone else made out. I'd say about 6-8 melted on me out of my 46, but I'm not exactly sure. Could have been my fault too because I kept moving them from one tank to the other and they don't like fast temperature changes.

Regardless, the ones I have are doing great. Won't be ordering again for awhile, but when I do I just want to have a general consensis about how the overall order went this time for everyone who participated.

Mine are good so far. Of course, they are just floating in a spare tank right now, but none melted.

Yea, that's basically what I did with the majority of them, but it seemed like every now and then I would notice just the leaves with the full stem floating around and eventually find a mushy rhizome that smelled god awful with out of the water haha. But if you haven't had any melt then its likely my fault for not keeping the temperature consistent. But at the price we got them for I'm not too worried about my losses. Just want to take note of them so I can mention it to my supplier next time.
