Love your channel and down to earth explanations. It's quickly becoming my 'go to' source for growing plants in my shrimp tanks. Thanks
Awesome! Thank you! I’m glad it’s helping you!
I love the plants life group thank you for it
I’m loving it ! Glad you’re enjoying it, too!
@@plantlifeproject I totally bought that calocasia bulb on Etsy let's hope it comes in From India. Idk how you can mail tubers like that...
Let's hope you try calocasia as well so I can compare my journey with it to yours
I love your style !👍👍👍👍👍
Love this plant but it seems to grow a bit too large for me. I’ll try it anyway! 😂
I’m growing this in a few of my aquariums they are growing well thanks for another great video ❤🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Awesome, how tall are yours? thanks!
@@plantlifeproject in my 4foot tank its huge my 4 other aquariums about middle size
I just came home yeaterday with some sedge
I just ordered this for my tank 3 days ago, perfect timing.
Sweet! Let me know how it grows!
@@plantlifeprojectBeen in aquarium 2 weeks now, growing well. I just grow with roots in water, so far so good.
Great video.
Great riparium plant.
I grow umbrella sedge for many years in my riparium, combined with a plenum gravel filter (custom home made). The moment it is establishing (after the second sprout), the growth is continuous and vigorous.
It is not spreading too fast outwards from the main column, but it's root system will be all over in the aquarium/riparium substrate. It will not come out from the substrate, it tries to go as deep as it can. But, even if the roots would be exposed, they have a reddish coloring, which is very pretty and gives a natural aquatic appearance.
Overall, great riparium plant, beginner friendly and good biological filter.
My next try will be with Schoenoplectus lacustris (lakeshore bulrush), because Phragmites australis (common reed) is way too aggressive in shoots and sprouting (need to be contained). 🙂
Awesome information. I've used the approach for several years with great results. We have very hard water in New Mexico. My question is will plants soften the water by taking up calcium. I've gone 6,7 months before doing a water change. Thanks for the video.
I've tried a feew times to plant in my substrate and it always dies. Will try it this way, thankyou
Good luck!
Yes mine too , it rots at the base 😢
Is it possible to grow this directly in tank substrate instead of a hanging planter?
Yes in a shallow tank, all of the foliage needs to be above the water
Regards from Pakistan.
I tried to find it in my city but could not. I will try to buy it from other big city soon
I hope you can get it, it’s a wonderful plant!
I know we can use epipremnum pinnatum in tanks, but can we use the marble version of it?
I haven’t tried the variegated one yet but it will more than likely work.I’ve grown the green form of it successfully.
Do you have issues with fish jumping out of the open-top sides of your tanks? I dream of having a peace lily/cat palm combo growing out of my tank, but I am so paranoid😰
I have not had any problems with jumping fish. It just depends on the fish species you’re keeping I think.
What species do you like best?@@plantlifeproject
I have mine in a tank but it rots at the base of the plant😢😊
Well that sucks. Not sure why. I have never had that problem. You could try placing it partially submerged with the crown above the water line? Have you tried growing it in soil and not in the water?
