aquatic

I promised myself I wouldn't get any more carnivores this season. However, one more has reared it's beautiful tendril and tantalized my addiction. Drosera regia - I have read through as many of the old threads I could here on TF and I tried searching ICPS (to no avail ???), so I have done a...

what types of "easy to care for" utrics form a carpet of grass on the bottom of fishtanks? my hairgrass and U. subulata arent really doing it, i assume its because i dont have co2 injection or fertilizers. i do have high light level though my tank is sand with a very thin top layer of small...

I was luckly enough to get a couple of small chunks of Utricularia from a LFS and was wondering if they can grow on a very damp CP (50/50) substraight? I have some extra CP substright that I am tempted to try to keep some of the utricularia in a flower pot with the substright completly...

I am going to put in a long distance order for some aquatic utrics and aldrovanda. I have to order 10 Aldrovanda (a minimum) so I am wonder if anyone would be interested in trading for my extra. This is not the Japanese Aldrovanda.

I plan to ship a portion of U. gibba. I'm just not sure how much water should do with it and how much that affects the weight and thus the cost. Does anybody have experience in shipping an aquatic utric?

I am looking for aquatic utricularia. If anyone has any extra please contact me and we will work something out. Thank you, Rose

Hey folks I'm developing a plan for a semi aquatic tank and I'm curious if there is a floating Utric species (preferably larger traps) or form of Aldrovanda that can live in a tropical vivarium year round and not need cool temps to form turions & go dormant?

Like the title says, I'm curious how many of you are growing these and how it's going? Do they become easily established in planted tanks? If you have a planted tank go all "pea soup" on you, will adding a few hundred live Daphina clean it up for you as well as feed the fish? Will those...

OK, now thanks to Master Grower I am interested in snails and I want to get a few and grow them as big as possible. I was wondering if anyone else is into raising snails. Locally we have black and gold Mystery snails and various darker colored / patterned Nerite snails. On ebay there is also...

I'm about to get some new tank space and was wondering what to grow in it. Well I've been growing U. nephrophylla very successfully as an emergent aquatic for some time but it is listed alot of places as a Lithophyte in nature. So that brings the question, has anyone tried with success or...

Hi everyone... :blush: As some of you may know, this weekend is so massively epic for me that I can't stand it! And just simply because how big and important this is (well, atleast to me)...I thought I'd share: I will be driving down to Miami and taking part in the Let Lolita Live rally...

Hey everyone, I am having some major algea problems with my utrics, I saved two strands from the two species I own and left the others to be invaded. I threw away the top layer of plants just to get rid of the ugly green slime on the actual utric tank, it's growing back. It's been a long time...

Hey guys, I was wondering what terrestrial Utricularia (or even Genlisea) can grow under water, permanently? I know that U. graminifolia can grow submersed permanently and it is now a popular aquarium plant! Can anyone give me any info on utrics that grow well under water? I am not looking for...

So I messed up big-time while watering plants... I snapped off a nice-sized growth point from my flava var. rubricorpora colony (big red, yellow floppy lid, strong phyllodia and pitcher-less by mid-autumn) I've had for about 1-2 years now. It has root nubs and is a good size. The base is dime...

As we all know mosses and other invaders take over a utric pot pretty fast and I have been wondering if anyone has ever grown any utrics purely in Shultz APS (Aquatic Plant Soil) or similar non organic material? I recently bought an expensive version of APS by Pond Care/Aquarium...

Whoo Hoo Just got a bunch of fresh Trapa Bicornis / Water Caltrop AKA: Bat Or Demon Head Seeds Will trade in lots of 12 Would like to trade for Neps / Plants or Rooted Cuttings Not on my grow list or feel free to tempt me {High Landers ONLY} LMK what you have & how many Lots you would like...

i'm so pleased to have found this forum, but i feel like such a noob! :blush: i put in a lovely little bog garden with a CP collection i bought online. then i discovered those "death cubes" at lowe's- which i bring home and put into the bog. so far, everything is growing very well (with the...

I am in the Illinois area and looking for some el'natural northern grown plants. :-D D. intermedia and D. rotundifolia perhaps, or/and S.Purpurea. Again, I am interested in plants of Northern origin... and if possible, northern grown. :-O Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota, Canada, North...

Over my past few years active on this board I have seen very little information on growing N. Northiana. While an incredibly beautiful, well-known species, it seems very few people, especially in the US cultivate this plant. If they do, I can't find them anywhere. :-D Last week I finally felt...
