Litesky,
After getting the batch of Pellia from you, and then reading the first post in this thread, I thought I would try this method to build up my supply before planting it in some of my tanks.
I've got it in a 4 x 5 x 1 inch deep clear tupperware type dish.
I've been keeping just enough water in it to barely cover the Pellia (maybe 1/4 inch deep)
I have it on a west facing window sill that gets about 5 hours of direct sunlight a day.
At first the growth was slow, but I kept pulling it apart as mentioned in the first post.
The last few days have been much warmer and growth has really picked up. It almost covers the whole bottom of the container now.
I think I will steal another tupperware dish from my wife next week and divide it among the two.
So don't give up to soon Sam, I think now that spring is trying to start you might start to see more growth.
Cheers, CD
