So the question I have is why

I don't know why you can't but I'm pretty lazy so I've always just left them
in the substrate. Though I only have experience with Ulvaceous and Crispus
(the easy ones), they always come back within a month and I've had Ulvaceous
flower and drop seeds, several of which were fertile and growing (until
something ate them)
Now I have some questions. Has anyone kept C. Willisi or C. petchii? Are
their normal requirements the same as other crypts? They will be in a
relatively rich substrate (laterite and earthworm castings) w/ moderate
light. The tank will be CO2 injected with either Flourish or PMDD as liquid
fertilizer.
