A few months back I received 5 tiger vals from Barthog and they quickly became 9 or 10 and are filling a spot in my 90 gallon discus tank and while I expected and anted them to grow tall to get that effect of swaying in the current some of these have reached a foot over the top or the tank so i wonder if anybody trims these and does the leaf tip turn brown after trimming also I will add that I dose metricide every day in this tank with no signs of it bothering them as I have heard that they are sensitive to this stuff.

I have trimmed then in the past, but I never really liked the way they looked, never looked as natural. You're probably better off removing the mature plants, and letting the smaller ones from the runners fill in
