Sister sent me a pic of the tank at my folk’s. Windowsill planted tank
Amazon community tank. Just added 6 paleatus cories in. 75x30x30cm
Been a lurker for quite some time now, and recently set up a Fluval Spec V. Kept Reef tanks for 5 years, and new to the planted game. Here is my Spec V all its new glory.
TFW it’s payday, I literally bought plants yesterday, and I’m going back for the Rotala I passed up
Before and after 7 months in
My 9g Fluval Flex after one week of growth. The dwarf hairgrass seems to be doing well!
My 75 gallon
FTS of my 12 gallon
Ghost shrimp doing some nightly cleaning
A few of my favorites.
Another update on my first planted (low tech) tank!
So I followed everyones advice and got more plants for my newly dirted 5 gallon tank. I wanted more stem plants like rotala but right now my light isn't the best, but once I up grade thats what I want to add. Also I got 2 corycat fish, which are the coolest little guys ever I might get 2 more later
My 10 gallon with 4 Silver Lyretail Mollies, ghost shrimp and an ivory mystery snail.
First planted, 60 gallon
5 Gallon Spec V Betta Tank, 9 Weeks In

Plant ID? Found on a hike
Added a lucky bamboo to my tank last night. Cycling almost done. My first planted tank, and I'm really pleased with how it's looking :) More pics in comments.
10g Pea Puffer tank. Day 1 easy green fertilizers. Went almost 2 months without any and plants haven’t been looking great. It’s still a work in progress and having algae issues but I’m happy with how it is looking. Also I took out the anacharis. That stuff was too much for a 10g.
New to the hobby! My 46l two days in. Waiting for that driftwood to settle. Any suggestions on what to improve?
FTS Friday!

The Purpose:

We all perform tank maintenance. Sometimes, perfectly good plants end up in the trash because they simply outgrow their limited environment. Why not share these plants with another hobbyist? This monthly thread offers a space where buyers and traders can congregate, promote biodiversity, and make the world better.

Offering other aquarium-related items for sale or trade is also acceptable, but keep in mind this is a "Random Acts of Kindness" thread. All equipment and plant-life should be offered in either trade or for as cheap as is possible.

If you'd like to offer your homemade ferts, foods, or other equipment for retail sale, please visit the plantedtank.net's forums. Posting retail items for sale is not appropriate in this thread and those comments will be removed with a polite warning.

The Rules:

1. If you would like to post a "WTB" (want to buy) or ISO (in search of), you must also offer items for RAOK or trade in the same comment. "WTB/ISO" posts that do not offer anything in return will be removed to keep this thread in line with its intended purpose.

Sellers: prices are encouraged to be as low as possible. These are plants you were willing to throw out, after all. Making a profit is not what this thread is about, and posts selling items will be removed. For clarification, "selling" is defined as asking for monetary compensation above and beyond the cost of shipping and packaging.
Buyers: you will be responsible in covering the cost of shipping, at least. If a buyer is happy with the sale, please consider offering the seller more for their time spent packing and shipping.
Please use a third-party payment organization like Paypal to conduct transactions if it can't be done in person. This ensures the security of the buyer.
Always be wary of online scams. /r/PlantedTank, the mods, and Reddit hold no responsibility for your private transactions. You are liable. By participating in this thread, you agree to this.
The transaction details should be conducted via PM as reasonably as possible. DO NOT POST ANY PERSONAL INFO. Posting even your own personal info will result in a warning, and then a ban.
Sellers are welcome to use creativity and fun when offering their stuff. Pick a number, favourite colour, most unusual story, etc.
Don't forget about /r/AquaSwap! Feel free to cross post between their sub and ours to maximize your advertising power.

Buyer/Seller Feedback:

Did you have a remarkable experience with a seller or a buyer? Please message the mods and let us know, whether your feedback be good or bad.

Shipping Instructions:

Please review this thread for some insight on how to properly ship plants.
