Need advice on planting Hygrophila pinnatifida

Post by Larry Grenier »

I have some on the way from Aquabid. I'm assuming it will be cuttings with no roots. I see it in folks tanks on rocks and driftwood and in the substrate and I can't decide/determine the best way to start with this plant. Advice? Thoughts?

You can plant it like a stem or tie it to wood or rock as you would java fern.

Thanks Cristy. Strange plant that can go either way. If I get enough stems, I do both ways to see which works best. :D
