I myself are planning to propagate this popular aquatic plants,im just not yet ready because ive seen in some video that this type of plants is a little bit pricey and can be ordered it online so im a bit nervous of spending money for im not so sure if some seller is honest enough to deliver it heathy or the other way around, but with your videos trigger me and inspired me to do so, i just hope that it will work as nice you were sir.

@zelphernide5758 2 года назад

After all the anubis and buce you've propagated, have you noticed if there was ever a difference between cutting with scissors or slicing with a blade for growth? Have you ever experienced rhizome rot with the emerged growth? Do you trim the roots for replanting?

@AquariumPlantLab 2 года назад

I’ve used nothing but sharp scissors for making my cuts. So far I have not experienced any rhizome rot. Knock on wood!!! I do typically trim roots back rather heavily before planting. Usually keeping just a few of the newest brightest white roots and cutting the rest back up to nearly the rhizomes. I do this mainly because it makes planting easier. 👍

beautiful job!! 🌱 how often do you spray 💦or how you know when to 💦 , whats the temperature in your room?? How often you harvest with this plastic tube setup?? Do you do the same routine for java propagation??? Thanks for share your beautiful story, I wish you the very best in your business idea 🤓

@AquariumPlantLab 3 года назад

I spray twice daily, once in the morning and once before bed. I keep the temperature in the room at about 75 degrees F. Honestly the plastic tubs haven't been working out so well with the Anubias, I think the new lights are too strong so I might need to look into raising the lights or adding some kind of a shade cloth. My java fern plants which were planted in basically the same way have gone crazy doubling every couple of months! Thanks for your kind words :)

@arianali250 Год назад

New sub from INDIA, I've heard people say that if I plant Anubias or Java fern in soil, the roots will rot. So, how come your plants are so lively?

@AquariumPlantLab Год назад

Roots can go in substrate, the rhizome (which people often confuse with roots) cannot go in substrate. This is a very common misunderstanding 🌱

@SurajRoy 2 месяца назад

What is that substrate ? Can I use garden soil + vermicompost mix for emersed anubias / crypts growth ?

@austink514 3 года назад

Love the series! 1. Does anubias need to convert to when you move it to submerged growth? 2. How much airflow does this set up need?

@ungodlygaming4950 3 года назад

Yes. Anubias will convert when converting to aquatic. The conversion may not always include losing all of the leaves, but there is a process. The conversion is basically the same as Buce.

@AquariumPlantLab 3 года назад

Well said, I would agree! OP, regarding airflow I have found that it is best to have no vent holes so as to maintain as much humidity as possible. I do tend to open the tanks daily to check on them though which introduces fresh air.

@HalfManHalfCichlid 2 года назад

How do the plants get CO2, WITH a top on the tote? Do you have any quantitative figures on growth of anubias emerged vs submerged? Number of new leaves per month for example. I would love to grow emerged faster and then submerge in my aquariums if it accelerates significantly and does not grow black beard algae....

@AquariumPlantLab 2 года назад

Growing out of water does seem to boost growth for anubias but it isn't a crazy increase like with lots of other species. Other benefits are that you will get very healthy growth and it will be entirely free of algae. Regarding CO2, I am in and out of my tubs typically at least twice per day. This allows atmospheric CO2 to enter the tubs each time they are open. They are not 100 percent sealed either. With soil tubs, I suspect CO2 is also added naturally as the soil decomposes and releases CO2.

Bought 7 anubias plants on two separate occasions. 3 of them all of sudden got rhizome rot. I had them attached to driftwood and rock. The sorry thing was the leaves still look really good. I'm new to fish keeping, and was quite discouraged. Makes feel like I should just get fake plants instead. Keeping plants seems way more complicated than fish.

My anubias leaf are burning, what should i do? Should I cut it or let it getting dry and burned?

@ungodlygaming4950 3 года назад

How humid is your tank? What is your photoperiod? Anubias are native to Borneo, which experiences high humidity and tropical conditions. Try your best to recreate that environment to get the best growing conditions. If that's not the issue, maybe reduce the photoperiod. Also check that your light is far enough from the plant to not be an issue.

@AquariumPlantLab 3 года назад

I second this. I would check your humidity. Make sure you have your plants in a closed container of some sort.

Yup! Although I would go for bright indirect sunlight with maybe just a half hour of direct. Might be able to do a bit more but you run the risk of scorching the plants. If growing underwater then I would definitely avoid too much direct sun.

@fabulously695 3 года назад

You can get grow lights from amazon or eBay for a fraction of the cost that aquarium lights come at. Some grow lights are white balanced like aquarium lights to make it pretty to look at, others only use red and blue spectrum which is the only part of light plants use, so you won't waste electricity on unnecessary light 😊. Some of them are reasonably cheap, look for a 1000W equivalent in Led, I got one for £25, the equivalent fluval would have been 200 odd

@jackparkin1339 3 года назад

Thanks for the brilliant video it's gonna save me a load of money. What soil do you use can you use just standard compost or do you need aquarium soil?

@AquariumPlantLab 3 года назад

I use miracle grow with great results! Start with a container size that you can fill mostly with plants to begin with (with a bit of space for them to grow in). This will minimize the amount of exposed soil that may develop algae. Gradually increase your container size as your plants grow. I recommend keeping the soil pretty moist but not so wet that water is pooling at the bottom 👍
