Please read entire auction and updated Just Me before bidding. Shipping to contiguous 48 states only, (CONUS, not AK, HI, or PR). Tips for a Successful Transaction Read all the information the seller provides so you can make a smart decision. Sometimes there cannot be a TL;DR. If you still have questions after reading everything, or have any special requests, ask before bidding. What you want may not be possible. Check your email, including spam. It's our only means of contacting you. Read the entire email, the last sentence may be a question. Not replying can delay shipment. If you are having trouble receiving emails, you can see messages sent to you through the AquaBid messaging system by going HERE and entering your Username and Password. Make sure the email and physical addresses on file with AquaBid and PayPal are up to date and correct. Check your 10 day weather forecast. Most problems are caused by temperature extremes, both hot and cold. The seller cannot make the package arrive on a certain day. Priority Mail doesn't have a guaranteed delivery date, it usually takes 2 or 3 days to arrive but may take longer. 12+ Stems Tropical Hornwort, Ceratophyllum submersum This is not the commonly available hornwort, Ceratophyllum demersum. Tropical hornwort, also known as Soft Hornwort is... softer. The form is similar but Tropical hornwort can get bigger & fluffier and does not feel like you filled your tank with branches from a spruce tree. If enough is still available, the winner may double the number of stems for just $10, ask as soon as you win if interested. Calling it 12+ but have been shipping at least 18 stems per portion. � � � � This plant should be left floating, it never grows roots and doesn't like being bunched and weighted. If left alone this plant will align itself vertically which looks really cool. On the surface it looks feathery. Tropical Hornwort is able to take carbon directly from the water (carbonate hardness, kH) if the dissolved CO2 is depleted. So while no plant will turn down supplemental CO2, Tropical Hornwort is able to keep growing late in the day even after the other plants run out of carbon dioxide.. This plant can grow FAST, just look what a big handful of 3" stems I added to a 10G did in 12 days with only one light bulb. The whole top half of the tank becomes safe for those valuable fry! � � � � Tropical Hornwort will grow in quite low light, it just won't be as full or grow as fast. For best results give it over 1WPG. This plant does not need fertilizer to grow but with light ferts I get a few inches of new growth each week. INCHES.EACH.WEEK. So I am ALSO going to include some of the fertilizer mix I use, enough to treat 500Gs (or 10Gs fifty times). You will have tons of this plant very quickly. It is NOT Miracle-Gro (do you know what's in that? ahk!) or any other repackaged product meant for terrestrial plants. It's a lot more comprehensive than Leaf Zone and infinitely cheaper than the SeaChem line. Safe for fish and inverts. And most of all, nitrate-free. I started growing this again a couple of years ago when a friend wanted large amounts of fast growing plants for fry cover. It's a little more work than guppy grass but it really does look great. Now I am using it again for tanks with livebearers which are more predatory towards their fry. It's harder for the adults to dart through, in fact they tend to not want to swim in it at all. Tangling can be prevented by just snipping long pieces into smaller lengths every few weeks. This beautiful plant is rare in the hobby because is fussy about how it is shipped. I can't just put it in a sandwich bag, it needs to be in water. If you don't believe me look at THIS. The fairest way for me to do this is to include the costs for the packaging materials in the auction price and you just pay the exact postage for 2 pounds as the shipping cost. Not registered? In a hurry? �Buy Direct! � Questions? Click for email. � Term details are on my Just Me page which was updated August 24, 2014. Read it before bidding. Payment is through PayPal only (you do not need an account, just a credit card), no e-checks. When paying with PayPal, you must use a shipping address, my account is configured to only accept PayPal Confirmed Addresses and I only ship to the address given in PayPal. Check your forecast! � If your weather is moderate, highs in the 80s (or less), shipping is just postage for 2 pounds from 01888, $5.32 to $9.97. You can check that cost yourself at usps.com, it will be much faster than asking me for a quote, use the online price (non-flat rate), not the post office price. I ship to PO Boxes if it's Confirmed Address. Hot locations, high 80s and up, will require a PO Box which is a PayPal Confirmed address OR Next Day shipping OR a helluva lot more insulation. It's not negotiable so email for costs before bidding. Shipping will be delayed if extreme weather may endanger the animals, ...it's a hobby not an organ transplant! LAG for stated quantities for 3 days if >45F and <85F. Some of my other auctions may be combined with this for savings on shipping costs. � Thanks for looking and GOOD LUCK!
