Okotoks Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 So my wife brought home an Aluminum Plant, which is a terrestrial plant. Yeah it looks good in her tank but I know it's going to die if not transplanted. My question is this. The plant stem seems weak from being supported under water so long, how do I go about putting it into a pot? Just set the roots in loose potting soil and support it with some sticks like I would for tomatoes? I have a spare 10 gallon tank and a bag of potting soil. Would this thing do well if I were to make the 10 gallon a Riparium/terrarium setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckmullin Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 how tall is this plant? could do a few things...use the tomato type thing stick or net could cut it down and let it regrow under gravity IMO, any plant that goes back and forth between air and water will have some sort of die back. Expect some to happen Again IMO, it is over kill to setup a terrarium for this plant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
