Small portion Fissidens Fontanus,

I claim what fishNAbowl put up. Lol.

fishNAbowl 2014-06-26, 00:43

Okay here is my list Wes. BHA on a rock, string algae (lots). Java moss scraped off the water return of an AC70. Wink

I claimed this plant package for the Hygrophila polysperma. The rest is a bonus, thank you Hyp3rcrav3 I always get quality plants from you. I will be anticipating the arrival of the shipment Smile

I'll get a list out in a day or so. But I warn ya Wes. It's 1st PM AFTER the list is posted, LOL!

fishNAbowl 2014-06-27, 14:13

Current offer:

Ammania gracilis
Hygrophila pinnatifida
Rotala rotundifolia
Florida sunset crypt
Stargrass
A moss that was purchased as 'Weeping moss'
Java fern 'needle leaf'

I have starters for the whole list above or if you want to pick and choose that's okay too.

Snails and algae are a possibility but I will do my best to clean plant starts.

fishNAbowl 2014-07-02, 00:35

Can we get the list in wOrds please? I got to know what #2 is and the type of crypt #4 is!

Very Happy

Guest 2014-07-02, 01:04

Maybe 2 more other plants. After I put fishNAbowl's offer in my tank might need to thin out some other type plants.

fishNAbowl 2014-07-02, 01:16

L.glandulosa, LOL! I just ID'd this plant earlier this week. Duh' geek

LuminousAphid 2014-07-02, 01:34

ludwigia glandulosa looks like a beast, i have never grown it but i would guess it sucks up the ferts... i would definitely take this but a. the diffuser makes me nervous that they would all die in my care, and b. i don't have many plants to offer. otherwise i would definitely take these or some of these, they look great sirwes

I wanted to toss this out there for everyone. The only reason some of us members offer big packages, or offer large bunches is because we have it to offer. If anyone is interested in picking up any of the plant packages but are worried about offering common plants, or the amount you can ship please dont worry.

The only suggested requirement is that the plants offered are in good shape.

Before plant it forward I only had like 3 plants. Rotala, moss, and a fern. Because of plant it forward I now have many different species.

So have fun, jump in! Very Happy

Sorry guys. Put the WRONG name on the plant offered.
Here's Ludwigia reopens (plant offered)[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Here's the new ID'ed by FishNAbowl. They looked similar but are not same plant, same Ludwigia family. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I just ordered a big plant package and pretty sure some I won't be interested in keeping. I may finally be able to jump into this! Very Happy

Guest 2014-07-02, 12:50

Updated list.
@ shortykilogirl jump in anytime.

ShortyKiloGyrl 2014-07-02, 13:03

Alright, I'll take it! Lol it may be a week until I can see what I have available from multiple tanks. My other shipment comes Saturday.

Guest 2014-07-02, 13:09

CLAIMED BY SHORTYKILOGIRL.
You want me to wait next Monday to ship out or today/tomorrow depending on when going to post office today or tomorrow. Lol.

ShortyKiloGyrl 2014-07-02, 13:13

Whenever it is convenient to you. I'm not in a big rush. Smile

today/tomorrow is fine. I would get it by Saturday then as well. Smile

Guest 2014-07-02, 13:37

Nvm I'll sent it out on Monday rather than possibly being stuck at post office or in truck over sunday. Baking in the truck. So Monday I will send it.

ShortyKiloGyrl 2014-07-02, 14:01

Okay sounds good!

I want to requote fishNAbowl's commet. Cause it's true. I also got different plants from "plant it forward". That's why I offer big packages to this wonderful plant it forward. Without it and some other fishboxers being generous of their plant trimmings. I've got different plants without having to buy them at petstores. It and fishbox really got me more into planted tanks. Thanks.
So whom ever wants to join and got other basic plants to high light plants, whatever to offer, JOIN IN!

good job everyone that's the intention of this thread, share, inspire and help others have a new experience.

Guest 2014-07-02, 18:06

Oh yeah. Thanks to this man, hobbyorobsession. Plant it forward wouldn't be here.

hobbyorobsession 2014-07-02, 18:38

yes I may have laid the seeds of the program here, but its the forum that keeps it going. Your all doing the real work.

LuminousAphid 2014-07-03, 19:32

I was sad when I saw that someone else got it, I had talked myself into it and then came back to see it was gone. Next time!

ShortyKiloGyrl 2014-07-04, 01:37

Oh no! Lol well we'll see what I have left over from all my bounties and maybe i'll have some stuff you want!

LuminousAphid 2014-07-04, 02:40

yeah I'm sure you will, and i am not in a rush at all, i need to figure out what kind of deficiency i have first anyway so that i can truly say my plants are in 'good shape' to offer up

Guest 2014-07-08, 15:15

Package on the way, shortykilogirl. Wednesday probably.

ShortyKiloGyrl 2014-07-08, 17:13

Awesome! Thanks!

Guest 2014-07-10, 18:39

The list

ShortyKiloGyrl 2014-07-10, 18:44

I haven't got it planted yet, had to do emergency water changes last night. 3 tanks spiked in different ways.. Sad

arhg, I will need help with ID so I will more than likely put pictures of what I have available up. Going to try and plant tonight while water changes are going again.

ShortyKiloGyrl 2014-07-10, 22:02

Will post pictures of what I have available. I'm playing wonder woman, cooking on the stove and bbq while planting 4 tanks and doing water changes on 3 lol

Ugh that's what my day has been like as well!! I feel like I haven't sat down all day.

ShortyKiloGyrl 2014-07-11, 01:11

4 Bacopa Caroliana
1 Brazilian pennywort
2 small (I believe) chain sword
And two unknown species.

Two unknown species are the two groups of plants to the right in the top pic

ShortyKiloGyrl 2014-07-12, 11:20

I will be leaving for vacation tomorrow and won't be able to get this out until the following Monday the 21st. Just a heads up to anyone wanting my offer.

Guest 2014-07-12, 15:20

Give quality what you would to receive quality. Not necessarily quantity. I give both to promote this thread.
