big sword

[ZOO YORK 207]

i have a big sword and it keeps sprouting little swords on the ends should i cut them off? or should i just leave them alone?

I would leave them, im pretty sure they should detach themselves soon and plant themselves somewhere.

but then if you dont want more sword plants....

i cut mine off and sell them
wait till they develop good roots or till plants are about 3-4" tall
also dont let them float up to surface or they will morph into a non-submerged stage
by switching the color light i get my swords to put out shoots every month
one large plant will produce 10-15 new plants per month

thnx it is an ozelot sword howw much do you tihnk a LFS would take for some little swords of that kind?

 

[lemcc]

lfs vary so much
a good store would give you 1/2 to 1/3 of retail (retail is around $5-7)
crappy stores 1/4 to 1/100000
aquabid or ebay $1.00 each for small ones
hell i will buy some
plants are easy to ship
