Wild collected red mangrove propagules

Okay, got the videos to work well... that's 2 months growth?! Holy cow, but that's what you get when you keep them outside in the sun. It's been a little chilly here at night until last week, but I'm planning on putting the babies I have outside for the summer!
 
Such a waste when they just go in a sump!
Some people do not have the room or like the look of it but I think It you can make a little lagoon or island section in your display for one....

I have a Deep Blue 30 gallon frag I turned into a clam/bubbletip tank. I found a big piece of rock that splits the tank in half and I have a deep sand bed in the back with mangroves growing in the back half.
 
Nice! Look at all of those leaves! :)

They are addicting right!? :cool:
I grew them outside in freshwater for a year and trimmed the one in the back to make it bushy. It is a 16 gallon Waterbox tank so I want them to stay compact so they can stay in that tank for a while
