In recent years Tissue Cultured (TC) aquatic plants have gradually taken over other formats like "cuttings", "pots with rockwool" etc. Indeed TC plants coming in cups have many advantages they are absolutely sterile, and do not have algal spores, pests like snails, etc.
But then TC plants also have the risk of "melting" after planting in the aquarium unless handled in the right way.
In this video, we cover some tips on how to handle these plants to avoid "melting" and having long-term success.
Three main areas have been covered:
00:00 Introduction
01:21 Effect of water hardness on TC plants
03:21 Effect of hardscape on CO2 mixing and hence on TC plants
06:05 What to do if plants have already started to melt?
