Tthe Aponogetons are my favorite plants. I had 3 Madagascar in my 20 gallon and they grew like monsters. Now I have 1 Madagasscar and 3 Ulvaceus in my 60 gallon, plus many more plants. The tank looks gorgeous.
I wish I could post my betta tank on here ... after watching this plant grow in my 5 gallon for a month ... my whollleeeee tank is green with these massive leaves. They’re so beautiful though ugh
Yes! Great range... I use them in with my goldfish.. at 68-70 and with my discus at 81-83 degrees! And no joke... it has taken over my 75 gallon in 2 months! Lol ...love those plants
How do you trim the 2nd plant? Can you relocate it in a tank if it's already rooted itself?? I adopted the bulb from a resident that moved and left them behind and didn't know what it was
This would be perfect for my 180 tall (3’ tall) tank! I’m wonder if, when it goes dormant, you could leave it in the tank and it would still come back? Or do you have to take it out?
Well dang, I bought a pack of bulbs and put them all in my 29 gallon aquarium. I keep it only filled about halfway because I have a Betta in the tank. Dude at Petco said these plants don’t get very big. Now I’m thinking that 5 is way too many for my tank.
@@jeffalbillar7625 if they don’t sprout within a couple of days then return them. I did this twice because only one or two per package were sprouting. Once they start growing they grow very quickly and produce flowers on very long stems. Those flowers will also grow seeds that drop down and grow more sprouts.
Bulb plants go through a resting stage. I presume you let it rest in place? It wouldn't get removed in nature is my thought.... Also how long does it rest for?

Thanks for the information. You are helping us novices get a grip on this vast topic. Jim

what kind of goldfish ? I pond goldfish & they eat EVERYTHING.
Hi, Thanks for valuable information from you. I want ask one query that can we plant bare bulb directly in Aquarium soil?
wish the ulvaceus had a mini version. love the color and leaf structure! :)
There's actually an "APONOGETON ONDULATUS" and is the same as olvaceus but in "mini".
@@rafaperry12 cool, thank you :)
Love this plant. Grows like a weed but looks amazing.

Cool looking plants for sure
Petco, sell this in pack of bulbs and label it as betta bulbs. Idk which species I'm growing right now.
You won’t until they grow
They're aponegeton Ulvaceous.
I'm growing 5 in a 29 gallon tank.
Wish me luck.

You can leave it in.
You'll just have a bare spot for a short time.
I have the lighter green one. Can you propagate them and how do you do it?

Have they sprouted yet
Yeah, three have so far. One already has a bunch of leaves and a flower.
I also have 5 growing in a 29 gallon.
How are you doing with them?
Any info would be appreciated

@@jeffalbillar7625 the amano shrimp and nerite snails in my tank love the plants.
Does this plant need root tabs or liquid feet’s if put into a gravel substrate ?
Depends. If you want it to grow fast, sure, some people with a heavily stocked tank dont use ferts. Def not needed

Also how long does it rest for?
Not for certain but I think the resting face has to do with seasons, so it would be during many months and prob dry ?
Do these plants have a dormant stage?
How to take care of bulbs?
What should I do if I receive an Aponogeton ulvaceus with a torn leaf?
Just remove the leaf. New leaves will grow in no time.
How long does my ulvaceus need to stay dormant?
Do these go dormant and die off?
Is that how you pronounce it. I didn't know, great video.
A pon ta geet on Is the way I have heard this plant pronounced
Happy Veterans Day.
