Lol... I would if I could!

Finally... all the crypts have recovered enough for me to rescape. When I pulled all the crypts to rescape, I got lots of babies. So I ended up with more crypts then I thought I had. With that, I was running out of space to replant all of them. But I managed to fit them all in.

Here are a few plants of the space. Sorry the water was still cloudy from the rescape.

Wow that is a really neat collection. What water parameters are you keeping in order for all of the plants to be happy and grow? I tried a couple of wendtii...they slowly died off. I'm not sure what I did wrong, I did dose root tabs.
Are you dosing ferts in the water column?

Thanks... The water is Cleveland city water which is pretty hard. This is a high tech setup with high light, pressurized co2, EI dosing, and root tabs. So my plants are like on steroid. They seem to be doing really well with a wide varieties of crypts and plants.

Ok neat its an interesting idea to have
a collection of crypts or any plant for that matter. I cant wait to see what the tank evolves into next.

I call dibs next time you have to thin some plants out!

I've just started getting.into the more exotic crypts. Your selection kinda gives me a lil chub chub. Lol

Have you ever thought about getting Usteriana?

Sure, I can let you know when I'm thining out the tank. The crypt bug can be very expensive!

I have had Usteriana before, just not a big fan fan. I like crypt aponogetfolia better.

Looking good Hung! The aponogetifolia looks happy. Is that Crinum behind the Alternanthera?

Usteriana was the only large species i was able to get my hands on. Why didn't you like it?

They get giantnormous and shade out everything in my tank. Extremely beautiful plant though. I want plants/crypts that are more controllable. I'm extremely busy and don't always have time to trim and rescape every weekend.

[rowdaddy]

I know what you mean...i just had to trim mine due to a melt from a move.

Nice work, Hung! Hopefully the flamingos will be landing soon.
