Thanks! I was hoping to keep the $$ in our "circle" but I really want to try and put these in my refugium area of my sump instead of the chaeto,,gotta do me..
Unless you are going to dedicate space to the mangroves I suggest you stick with macros instead.
Mangroves will eventually settle in and begin to grow and when they do they sprout upwards fairly quickly, not ideal for standard fish tank stands. If you have a sump room and can provide room for growth or .50 cents a piece shipping included. I once had over 100 of them.
5 mangroves will not do anything for any system in regards to nutrient export.
Buy direct and just save.
If interested in keeping the money in your circle, patronize the vendors for things you know must or usually only come from stores.
Guys, just find Bamboo Dynasty on ebay and buy them from him, 2 month stay alive guarantee and no hassle replacements and he sells with roots and leaves.
If you did not know, a seedling can take for ever to grow roots and sprout leafs and some never do, they just die and when you buy several no matter how great the shipping is some just die.
This seller will replace any that do not adapt to your tank within 2 months.
