[APD] Re: plant trimmings--from top or bottom?





Amano's
method is to just trim the tops of the plants while their still in the
aquarium, throw them away, and just let the bottoms regrow.

How cool that I my tanks have something in common with Amano's. This is probably the only way in which they remotely resemble his tanks, LOL!


I do this because it is easier, things get bushier, and yes, the tanks do look a little bit shorn after a heavy pruning. It's worth it to avoid the stem-by-stem replanting over and over, especially in tanks where fish root around enough to uproot the freshly planted single stems (meaning most of my tanks).
