What's the best way to prune or trim something like a sword? I have a Rubin that eclipsed about 30% of the light entering my 75. I thought to start with outside leaves, but the long ones are closer to the center.

And to save myself the trouble...pruning crypts? just plain crazy?   <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley24.gif" border="0">

For the sword, just pull out any leaves you don't want.

Don't know about the crypts.

Aquascape? I'm a crypt farmer.

If you've got bait, I've got wasabi!

I wish I could be like Mr. Sarcastic when I grow up! ;)

Actually, reading several of SCMurphy's posts, I think he would trim, let dry, roll-up, light, toke, glassyeyedgrin <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley29.gif" border="0">
