Do the roots ever stop growing?
This is a stupid question but....my planted tank is now about 2 years old
and I was just wondering if the roots always continue to grow in the substrate? Don't they run out of room? How long can you leave the same plants in the tank, do you have to uproot them and start with new ever? Sorry for so many questions. I was a newbie 2 years ago and I guess I still am for that matter. BYW I have a 12 gallon tank with anubias and crypto's..... Thank you , Paige |

Thank you , Paige My "hands" move plants here and there at least once a month (Actually I wanted to make my tank look like one of those at Nature World Aquarium tanks ..) During that time I just cut excess roots and replant them. Regards Dominic |
