im looking for grass that will reach around 6-7inches. if i get dwarf hairgrass, will it not grow up to be that tall? ]]> jc0522 http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/plant-physiology-emersed-culture/66574-height-dwarf-hairgrass-vs-regular-ol.html http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/plant-physiology-emersed-culture/66506-how-long-crypt-flowers.html Mon, 09 Nov 2009 03:04:37 GMT I have a set-up in the journals forum (Wetland-n-a-Box) that has 3 Crypt sp. and I'm wondering how long it usually takes emmersed crypts to flower. Check out the thread for background info (I don't know how to link to it from here). The crypts are wendtii, what I think is spiralis, and an unknown. ]]> mudboots http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/plant-physiology-emersed-culture/66506-how-long-crypt-flowers.html http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/plant-physiology-emersed-culture/66459-emersed-bolbitis.html Sat, 07 Nov 2009 13:37:58 GMT I absolutley love bolbitis. I have looked at several LFS for some at many years but I could never find any. I finally found some about six months ago. I paid about $5 total for three "plugs" grown by a local hobbyist. I put the largest two specimens in my display aquarium. These grew very slowly up until when my Hygro overgrew the top, shading the ferns and then they started growing like crazy! The third stem was the smallest. It had about three small fronds on it. I superglued it to a small stone and buried the stone in a 3 inch clay pot leaving the rhizomes above the soil. I put the pot in a 2.5 gallon rimless tank, added a small powerfilter, covered it in saranwrap and put it in a shaded window sill and forgot about it basically. Yesterday I took it out of the small tank where it had been steadily growing into a monster. Now it measures about six inches in diameter and is about eight inches tall and has over 30 individual fronds! I put it in the waterfall portion of my frog viv where I hope it overcomes the entire tank. ]]> Dryn http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/plant-physiology-emersed-culture/66459-emersed-bolbitis.html http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/plant-physiology-emersed-culture/66455-mini-riccia.html Sat, 07 Nov 2009 02:55:11 GMT What's the difference in size btw. normal riccia and mini riccia? More importantly, how do you tell which one you've got if you've only got one. I bought some mini-riccia, and I'm starting to wonder which one I have. It's converted almost entirely to submersed form and it's spread all over my tank. I thought the mini didn't do that. I also had regular riccia a long time ago, but I don't remember how big it was. ]]> tao http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/plant-physiology-emersed-culture/66455-mini-riccia.html http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/plant-physiology-emersed-culture/66420-propagation-eriocaulon.html Thu, 05 Nov 2009 19:13:52 GMT Hello everyone.

The parts of the plants thats above the substrate looks normal and green but the stem thats burried underneath the substrate appears to melt. Only the stem section is effected though not the leaves attached. Starting from above the substrate the stem is hard and normal from my observation. Is is a problem or is it just the plants adapting to a new tank. I recently add a few plants to one of my tanks from a local LFS, its been about a week.
