theokie Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 (edited) So when I was adding water to my dry start/emersed start glosso in Fluval flora, I noticed what I thought was white mold on the leaves, upon closer inspection I noticed that they were infact white flowers all over. The glosso has been growing for about a month under 6 Cre XRE LED's driven at 1amp, with MTS covered by Fluval Stratum. I couldn't find any threads anywhere concerning glosso blooming so I thought I would share some pics before I flood the tank later in the week.

jcgd Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Very nice! You carpet looks very healthy and thick. Lets see some FTS. How do you like the MTS? Was it hard to make? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theokie Posted April 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Freshly flooded full tank shots, hopefully will clear up in a few days. As for the MTS under the fluval substrate, just took about an hour of screening the soil to remove the large solids, was more of a waiting game, keeping it damp and turned over in a plastic container for a few weeks this past winter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theokie Posted April 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Lobelia cardinalis 'Small Form' is the purplish one I believe Bolbitis heteroclita is the larger fern in the back left Anubias nana 'Petite' on the rock and drift wood Lagenandra thwaitesii in front of the driftwood on the right, looks like a crypt Bacopa myriophylloides background left, just peeking over the driftwood and of course the glosso all over the place and some Christmas Moss attached to the tallest driftwood Everything except the Christmas Moss and Glosso came from the recent Aquarium Central plant order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
