- Emersed Aquarium Plants Setup 🌿 Trial Run
🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
In this video we are taking aquatic aquarium plants and transferring them to an emersed setup. We hope to find out which plants will adapt the easiest and which will give us the best results. It's well know that semi aquatic plants grow much better on land then under water. They have access to more oxygen and higher amounts of co2 that is needed for rapid growth. This is a little test to see if an emersed garden is a viable option to mass grow plants for future projects as well as some for profit.
One plant in particular, Bucephalandra, is becoming increasingly scarce in the wild due to its rising popularity in the planted tank hobby. We are hoping to help take some of the strain off of the wild collection of this species by farming our own. This is a sustainable way of filling our own use of the plant. Only recently have plant distributors started to farm their own Bucephalandra which is a great start, but more are needed before we can eliminate wild collection all together. If successful we would be able to expand our setup and farm Buce locally for our fellow aquarists.

Right on! Thanks for taking the time to comment.
That’s so awesome Mike.. I’m happy you shared. Awesome growth 😊👍👍
Thanks Angelo I am super happy with the growth. You will have to get yourself one going.
Nice to see ya.
Hey thanks man
Great work again guys glad to see yas back online read in another comment about your health hope all is well and get better soon look forward to future videos as always
Thank you very much for leaving us a comment man. My health has been pretty up and down but hopefully we can start getting vids out weekly again soon
Yes bucephalandra is a great plant! My favorite!!! It is found only in the rain forest of Borneo and it is all but gone!! Many types are extinct and others are only found in the hobby (not their native habitat). Great job on the emersed setup and your 75 planted tank is amazing!!!!
Yeah I was sure I read a few species were wiped out, its really a shame. I am happy to see a few suppliers are buying from farms now that grow it them selves. I really appreciate you checking out our video.
That’s so awesome Mike. Can’t wait to see how it goes after about a month er so..
Oh same here Angelo.. I imagine by then i will have a few more trays just from the clippings of this first batch, i'm stoked.
cool project
It is, that you very much for watching.
Look forward to your videos was wondering what happened to you. Thank you for sharing. Great video ! 🇨🇦👍😁❤️
Thank you very much Frank. I wish i could have got out a few more videos but i have not been feeling up to filming. Hopefully we can see some light at the end of the tunnel soon and get a few more out here for you all. Thanks for being patient with us.
AQUA NUT hey I really hope all is well. Your videos are really good and I always look forward to seeing them. Stay strong ! Life offers all different challenges. Take care my Canadian friend. 🇨🇦👍
I really appreciate the support Frank thanks man. We will work on getting some more videos out there. Take care
AQUA NUT you are awesome. Good night my friend 🇨🇦👍
How much light did it need during the first week?
Did you do a follow up to this video?
Yeah totally man it was one of the next videos I filmed after that one. I have sold or started so many tanks with those few trays, they just keep on growing back. Hope you were able to find it
What substrate are you using?
It was just your standard black dirt.
how many time do you use the lighting ? and how many watt?
Lol I am working on a video on this actually. I am using a led grow light you can get from Amazon and 2 cfl 14watt bulbs that give off the light of a 60 watt light bulb. I am giving them 12 hours of light on a timer.
Do you have experience to emersed in outdoor ?
No I have never tried outdoors man. I live in Canada so we don't really have the weather for it
