Alex Burgess Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Hi, I have been given these 2 plants for my tank, but have no idea what they are, or how to care for them. All I have been told is they should be attached to some wood out of the substrate. I have put them both with my Java Fern on my focal piece of wood in the tank. Any help would be greatly appreciated as they have been in the tank just 1 day and I don’t really want to kill them 😂 Thanks in advance Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corbidorbidoodle Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I'm not a plant expert, but I'd like to be someday... But I'm pretty sure the crypt on the right should be planted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Burgess Posted March 13, 2022 Author Share Posted March 13, 2022 I’d like to just say thanks for the reply’s, and since earlier I have moved both of the crypto plants into the substrate near my pump where the best water flow is. Hopefully I’m not too late and have managed to save them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
