A little off the latest topic (Ph). The sword plant above seems to be doing ok. Not knowing any better I had planted the two small anubias in gravel. After reading about the rhizome I uncovered the bottom portion of the plant leaving only part of the roots covered. A few days later each plant has a few new leaves that have sprouted. I guess this is a sign it is getting enough light?? I think the next time I do a water change I am going to tie one of the anubias to a small piece of driftwood that is in the tank. I had to trim the hornwort already as it has probably grown 6 inches in three weeks. I trimmed and replanted the trimmed portions. I am still waiting on the tank to cycle. It was three weeks on Sunday and I am getting ammonia readings between .25-.50. Still zero on the nitrites. I got her the 50Ft python so I am doing water changes of at least 25% sometimes closer to 40% when the ammonia gets close to .50. My grandmother seems very pleased with just the 6 fish that are in the tank so I know once it is cycled and we can start to fill it she will be in heaven.
