- In this video, we're going to teach you about pearl weed aquarium plant, one of the most important plants for fish tanks.
Pearl weed is an essential plant for fish tanks, and is particularly beneficial for timid or nervous fish. It provides a safe place for fish to hide and reduces the chances of them being attacked by other fish.
If you're looking to add an important plant to your aquarium, be sure to add pearl weed! It will improve the health and biodiversity of your aquarium, and provide your fish with all the nutrients they need to thrive!
bishopaquatics...
Would it do fine in sand but with added firdilizer to the water?
Yep! We have it like that with several tanks
@@BishopAquatics Ok, thank you. One more question. How do I plant it?
Take a small wad, bunch it, and stick it in the substrate. I plant some in this VoD: ruclips.net/user/liveuhazNXSJO-s
@@BishopAquatics ok, thanks!
Just got some, wish me luck! 😃
Thanks. Your aquarium is excellent.
Thank you!
Unbelievably, I don't have any Pearl weed in my fishroom. Closest thing I have is Rotala indica.
Also a pretty good plant! We had a ton of that at one point.
why my pearl weed plant somewhat round leaves after plant delivered
Ive failed to grow every "easy" plant....gonna try this next
Pearl Weed is the second easiest plant I've ever grown. The easiest being Hornwort. DM me on my website or email, If you end up trying some pearl weed, let me know. I'll throw a thing of hornwort in with it.
How tall tall does your pearl weed grow? I’m looking to set up some outdoor pond tanks this summer.
It will grow to the top of the tank. However, when it goes very tall, you run the risk of having the bottom parts of the plant develop "leggy bottom leaves" which basically means they're getting light deprived at the bottom. So just make sure to have it appropriate for the amount of light!
My pearlweed is just dying off weeks after first adding to my tank. Anubias and duckweed are doing well. I keep adding ferts but nothing.
How much light is it getting? The only times ive had pearl weed die is from lack of light, or over abundance of nutrients (it doesn't require too much)
It’s a regular daylight spectrum bulb and it’s super close to the tank(lamp). Small tank with just a betta and 4 zebra endlers. Light is on from 8 am to 10pm. 🤷🏽♀️
I need some help with my pearlweeds man, all other stem plants seem to be thriving, but my pearlweeds are melting.
plus, scuds don't eat it.... like the do moss and hornwort....
Also true. Although scuds don't seem to eat most of our plants, except the mayaca fluviatilis. Hopefully the non-AI voice was better!
@@BishopAquatics glad you're feeling better !
Can I just plant it in gravel substrate, I don't have dirt
Of course. We plant it in all kinds of things including sand, pebbles, and traditional substrate
can I plant pearlweed in just gravel?
Yeah. Gravel, pebbles, sand, dirt, or fancy substrate (ecocomplete), or float it.
@@BishopAquatics Thanks!
What is the latin name? Is it the Micranthemum sp. Monte Carlo or Micranthemum Umbrosum? Im not sure.
I somehow always manage to kill pearlweed
How!?
@@BishopAquaticsI bought it twice with red root floaters, both times the floaters and my pearlweed melted.
@@BishopAquaticsI assume the parameters of my tank must just be wildly different from the seller's tank, the copepods that hitched a ride survived tho.
@@Axodus Not from me right?
@@BishopAquatics No, I got it from Buceplants. Maybe I should get it from you next time, yours is a better deal, I get more and for a better price(/w shipping).
