Caprichoso Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Hi again, I want to bring my aquarium plants with me when I move. I will be moving them by truck from Edmonton to Vancouver Island. I was thinking of putting them in plastic bags(like how you would get then at the LFS). But with just a bit of water in the bottom to keep the roots wet. The rest of the plant would be kept humid. Is this okay? Also, should I trim back the roots? Any tips on digging them up safely? Should I pack them in styrofoam? What if they don't have light for 2 days? Do I add ferts to the bags? Help! Lol The plants I have are as follows: Java fern, Anubias, crypts, and a very large sword. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvision Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 I just bag them w/o water or trimming. They should be fine for up to a week like that. I've also just pulled all my plants and tossed them in a pail w a tight lid. I've had them like this for over a week when I moved last and didn't have the time to set everything up right away.
