Um, I guess? They're alive, but they're not growing for him. They're only as big as they are because they thrived in my tank. So I guess my advice is to get an established piece?

@DD, yes. I kind of want a betta fish. Trying to decide if I should do a planted tank.

Yes indeed, DD

Ironically, he can grow 10-feet long Jungle Val, and as soon as I take a few pieces of it, it dies in my tanks. So it's all about finding the plants that you can maintain and thrive in your tanks!

@Charm, pointless as in easy?

Ooo are we talking fish and plants? :D

Bird, then you need to have a good piece of driftwood or lava rock to attach it to. But they still grow and require trimming! I have a giant anubias in my 135 that has been growing for 6 years on a large piece of driftwood. I can't seem to kill it, but I'll give pieces to my dad for his tank whenever I need to do maintanance and he can't get them to grow at all. Some pieces that are 3 years old are the same size as when I gave them to him. So... I'm not sure about that. I think they're easy and great plants. If you asked my dad he'd say they're pointless LOL

Charm,
He was wild! The brightest pink and shimmery blue I've ever seen in a betta. Loved his leaf hammocks, too.

@Charm, what about rhizome plants that don't need to go in substrate?
Backwood Barns
10:02:42 Charm's Wubs
Bird, you have to have the right soil/substrate first of all. And then you have to either find someone local who will give you cuttings of their established plants, or order online (I recommend ModernAquarium if you do this, I've never had a bad order.) and then once they are established you have to trim them and keep them maintained so they don't overgrow. Sometimes that means throwing extras away, sometimes that means replanting them... if that makes sense.

Yay, English. Apparently I'm getting sleepy lol

Bird,
I do not, Paarthurnax passed just before my move to Tennessee. However, he had a 20 gallon tank all to himself, which a ton of silk plants and caves.

@Versa, do you currently have a betta? What size tank is he in?
Versailles
10:00:47 Versa
I ended up only with a few moss balls because my betta that I tried live plants with had serious beef with these inanimate objects lol
Backwood Barns

Oh my goodness Versa. That's HILARIOUS! Such a spicy and opinionated boy you have!
Hummingbird Meadows
10:00:44 Bird
@Charm, can you explain a little more how they are so much work?

My sisters betta was 6 when he passed. I had one live to be 4 before he passed. Im curious how long Fishy will live

Live plants are an insane amount of work, but sooo worth it. Also, if you like houseplants like pothos/monstera they can be grown above the water column! Their roots LOVE the fish water.

Bird,
2-5. although in rare cases, 6-8

Charm,
Bro, mine would flare and go bonkers through his entire tank every time it turned off! It was hilarious. But I had to have it off sometimes to clean up the tank lol
