Alec Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I have a tank with some Val and I was unsure the best way to propagate it so I can move some to another tank. Best tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeQ Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Just grow healthy Val, It will propagate itself in the form of runners. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeQ Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Once you get a runner you cut the connecting ligament and you can move the plantlet 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JettsPapa Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 As mentioned above, it will send out runners, with a new plant at the end. Then that plant will send out another, etc. As far as I know there isn't any other way to propagate a single plant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGlidden Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Feed your Val LOTS of roots tabs. Won't take long you'll have plenty! 2 plants - 2 months later can't count them all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGlidden Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I'd give it 2-3 per week or put planted substrate under yours. I've put filter bags full under existing gravel. Gets cloudy for a second putting it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
