    I’m going to give this a try. I hope you’re going to do some more the breeding/raising fry content soon? Personally it’s my favourite content to watch. Although, I still watch all your content, I just enjoy the breeding and raising fry the best. 🐟🐠😊

      If you're new at raising fry, divide them into two containers in case something goes wrong. Losing all of them in one night is easier than you think, and a spare gives you another chance.

    If you open the container and let some light in, the plants will grow 1000x faster. Light + CO2 = massive growth. Ludwigia will grow a foot or more in about a month after it has new leaves. Open a little at a time.
    Using the plants you have now, open the top a little for a few days, then within a week keep the cover off all the time and give it defused light. If your plants are struggling put the lid back on a little. Then new plants can be created within weeks. They don't have to adapt to the air.

    Do they grow faster in tubs or in aquarium?
    If youre growing them to sell it might be easier for you to put them in individual pots to start with, that way the roots dont get all tangled together.
    I also think that sphagnum moss could work well for this, its cleaner to work with and customers wont have to wash soil off the roots before adding the plants to their aquariums.
    Or maybe even cups with 1 inch of water with rooting hormone/nutrients could work.

      As for lighting, they say somewhere between a kelvin range between 5000 and 7000 mimics daylight settings but I have grown emersed plants between 2000 - 3500k.
      There is a guy called Aquarium Plant Lab who has done a video similar to Nick's emersed tub setup. The information provided is very detailed as he explains the reasoning behind his setup and methods.
