I know anacharis is considered a weed among plant growers but i seem to like it because it's very easy. So, I have a 3 gallon with anacharis and i have a few questions.
1 when trimming anacharis is there any method to doing so? What i mean by that is wherever I cut the plant it stops growing from that spot and it gets brown colored. Is there any way i can trim it so that it continues to grow from that spot?
2 When i take the trimmings to transplant do they have to be a certain length to plant them? I have a plant that is covered in algae and it has a few new branches that are growing that I would like to trim off and plant but they are only 2-3 inches long. Is this long enough to transplant?
3 a few of the stems have something odd happening to them. Roots have grown from higher up on the plant and have dug down into the soil. The base of the stem has rotted off the bottom but the plant is still growing. I put some jungle root tabs in the substrate could this be causing this to happen?
What my ultimate goal is to remove all the orrigional plants that have turned a dark green/brown color and replant the tank with the sprouts that have grown off of these plants.
