SpiritLiefe Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 This is my 10 gallon red cherry shrimp tank. I got home from work tonight and I see this random leaf growing in my hair grass. It's pretty clearly a red tiger lotus leaf, but it's pretty far away from where the rest of the Lily pads are coming from. Is it just sending off a single shoot for a new leaf or will more leaves grow where the new one is? I recently added more root tabs because my rotala was getting roots up on the stems so I know they needed them. I only cut the Lily pads that start to look yellow or damaged. This plant is an absolute fast growing monster. I clearly need to replant it in a larger tank but it's going to have to wait because we move in 30 days. 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Nice tank as it a bulb plant I would assume it would grow an offsets on the bulb you could remove an replant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiritLiefe Posted May 22, 2021 Author Share Posted May 22, 2021 It grew another leaf! That would be really nice because I have a 20 gallon with a firm bulb that just doesn't want to grow at all lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.K.Luterman Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 I just replanted one of my tiger lotus's babies the other day. It was attached to a runner growing under the substrate. I just clipped it off and then planted it where I wanted, much like how you would with Val. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
