See the latest update on my journal for the story.here -->
I will be forced to tear down two tanks. I want to show my thanks to the people of tpt and the new york aquatic family. So I want to give away my plants. No room where im staying right now to start anything new. My tanks are sort of in stasis right now. blacked out and cold. but amazingly the plants are doing ok. list of plants include,
Rotala Rotundofolia
various crypts, most wendtii and petchii
dwarf sag
jungle val
bacopa caroliniaa
moss mixed with suberwassertang
some ludwigia red
frogbit and duckweed
some blyxa too if its not in bad shape...have to see
Ideally I would like to get rid of all of it at the same time. between work and all the things I have going on with my place I will not have time to meet different people for a few plants. I can meet you anywhere during the week or you can pick it up this weekend after Saturday in sheepshead bay. Im just looking to put the place in a new home I would hate to throw everything out.
Thats a bummer frrokk Youre staying with your...mom? (dont remember exactly) Hopefully once you are able to get space and tanks again, you can get your own plants back again!
Where are you in sheepshead? Im near there usually, but Id only have space to take in some crypts/sag
no, that was Bluek24(edit: guess I'm the one with the bad memory >.>)
I think we can get someone (like jellie?) who has a large tank and car to pick it up... and whoever wants plants can share the price of fuel...? and pick the plants up later.
Joe, I would be interested in your crypts. If I can keep them going well till you get your tanks back I can then give you crypts back when you're ready.
I should have room for most of what you have Joe, but I dont know what I will be able to keep alive for a long time since its a low light low tech tank.
Hey mike. Can you get back to me. And let me know if you be around today. All the plants I was able to salvage are low tech. Also wondering if you can maybe help me distribute to others. Thx.
I'll take the frogbit and if you want I'll set up that 10g I have sitting there half full and put plants in there for you, then you can have them back whenever you set up again.
My crypts melted but gonna have tons of rotala, dwarf sag, jungle Val and moss. Trying to get in touch with mike from Howard beach to see if I can give him the plants to distribute to you guys. I'm going away next week for holidays and won't have time to meet people.
I've been looking for jungle val for a long time. I'll be in Brooklyn tomorrow if you want I can take all the stuff and help redistribute. text me.. 5O5-55two-2six 79
Sorry guys. I didn't have time to meet with anyone b4 I left town for the holidays. All the plants are in a plastic bag right now at my moms. I'll go through it when I get back to see I can salvage anything. But I'm sure it's all dead by now.
