Aquarium plants

The aquarium plants convert a room reservoir into the original submarine garden, decorate it not less fishes and other inhabitants. Growing of aquarium plants so enthralling, as well as room floriculture.
Without them in the water environment the biological equilibrium can not be set; vegetation enriches water by oxygen, serves by shelter for fries and food for fishes, shellfishes and mikroflori. Naturally, that before to place in aquarium fishes and other living creatures, it is necessary to crop it with plants.In aquariums conduct mainly teplovodnie exotic plants of small sizes. They well grow during all year, while experience most plants of our reservoirs the winter in the oppressed state or die off in autumn, in spring to regenerate from seeds, tubers or rhizomes.Aquarium most plants well overgrow from handles-wreckages. Simply prikapivayut them in soil with the sheet bosoms from which soon the counterfoils germinate. So conduct peristolistniki, lyudvigiyu, kabombu, bakopuand row of other plants. Vallisnerii, marsilii. izoetes, different kinds amazon and plants similar to them propagate oneself by prikornevimi otvodkami — by sprouts, on the ends of which the young plants are formed.At aponegetonov young otvodki appear on the leaved pointers. And some plants rear, landing in soil pieces of rhizomes or tubers, for example, money-box yellow, which not bad grows in aquariums. On a new place best the young plants prigivayutsya of all. Therefore, buying them at the market, it is not needed to overpay a superfluous money for the luxurious large copies which in the process of adaptation at you at home, as a rule, decline in health and will in best case give beginning of young underwood.Before landing every plant it follows carefully to wash in pelvis with the net water of room temperature. Simultaneously it follows to delete all leaves and podgnivshie counterfoils dying off. The long counterfoils are needed to be shortened so that their length corresponded to the layer of soil.In most cases the plants seat directly in soil of aquariums. In pots it has to seat the plants wherein it is assumed to contain fishes inclined to the digging activity. For the pot culture appropriately than the plant of the single landing, clustering forms, more large and not formative prikornevih otvodkov, for example, lyudvigiya, aponegeton, yellow money-box and other. The pot landing of yellow money-box is appropriate also in order to limit the excessive growth and excrescence of rhizomes of this powerful plant undesirable in the room aquarium. For this purpose it is possible to use small kuvshinoobraznie, uzkogorlie pots. Planted there young plants taken by the early spring from the natural reservoirs, at the lateral illumination form beautiful electric outlets of submarine pale green leaves. Such, in essence, midget form of money-box it succeeded to save, artificially limiting growth of its root system by the small pot and cutting rhizomes germinating through its overhead edge.For the taking root of the again planted plants, settling of shallow particles of soil and forming of mikroflori of aquarium 7—10 days are necessary. By the index of the set equilibrium the disappearance of the lees arising up in the first days serves in «nature» of room reservoir. Only after this in aquarium it is possible to seat fishes and other animals.
