Have you had a similar experience with pothos? Are you using it in your tank at all?
I've been trying different house plants the last few months. I found that you CANNOT plant a spider plant in gravel and have it fully submerged. I have a snake plant piece that broke off so I tried planting it in a 55-gallon with it going from gravel to 4 " above water. I've seen no change in months. I've had pothos with leaves above water in both my 55-gallon goldfish tank and 29-gallon tropical tank. Leaves look equally good in both although goldfish have eaten all root runners while roots extend up to 4" on the topical with small fish. Given that some clipping are 3', I may want to plant the roots causing some leaves to be under water, but still having a foot outside.
Eventually the leaves that are submerged will go to wilt and start melting. It will throw roots and anything that makes it above the surface will continue to grow.
But I have never been able to get more than 2-3 months on a submerged one before they begin showing stem rot.
I have successfully glued clippings to rocks and submerged them until they start to throw roots. Just to add foliage to a tank. Once they do set roots I then take them out and pot them in a rim holder.
Im thinking the bottom leaves will probably melt or die off once it starts etablishing itself outside the tank. Pothos are oretty resilient and hardy so it dosent shock me that a well etablished and stable plant gene pool could adapt so fast:) . Ive got some Marble Queens rooting in my betta tank , rhe foliage is out of the water tho
Yes I have pothos on the top and piece lilly just not submerged
Nice! Do you have the Peace Lily set up a certain way?
@@TPASSAquatics just the roots in the water
regular pothos???
This one specifically was Golden Pothos
Make a video in two or three years please not in two or three months. Of course anything can survive under flood water or in the wet season high water but even adult trees eventually die in a newly made lake. My experience with pothos is that once you get established roots growing viciously fish do eat the WHITE new growth roots without any deaths. Some species of fish eat it more than others. I kept the indoor plant sold as bamboo alive in water for almost two years before it eventually died. The bamboo was not actually growing .
