Maggie Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I wonder if there is a second career in growing water sprite, or at least enough money to pay for the hobby. My very large sprite has now been divided again. I swear it grows a half inch a day or more. Out of one regular size plant in September, there is now a piece in my 10-gal (itself ready to split into 2), sacrificed 2 small pieces for each of my quarantines, and now I have 3 pieces in my main tank after splitting them over the weekend. What do you guys think if I take the two sprites at the top and, once my first 8 harlequins are out of quarantine, ask my LFS to trade them for 4 harlequins when I go in to get the next 8? Because if this works out I will do a tub of the stuff and start actually selling it to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandy Pearl Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I have about a 3 inch piece of water sprite that was brown and is now 50% green after about a week in a new tank. This is truely a remarkable plant. Divide it up and get as much enjoyment out of it as you want! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alesha Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 It looks great! Evidently your water makes it happy, happy! I guess the only way to know is to ask your LFS if they're interested. It sure would be a nice way to earn some store credit! 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 Sprite decided to grow out of the tank in a few spots. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
