Easy Aquatic Plants for Beginner Aquascapers - Intro to Aquarium Plants | EP3 Planted Tank Overview

[@khurtwilliams]

My favourite beginner plants are Anubias, especially the nana variety and Cryptocoryne. At some point, I will try Bucephelandra. Thank you for clarifying that Anubias, etc. are not epiphytes but rheophytes. As a hobbyist, I adapt my knowledge and terminology as updates happen. I think that experts in the hobby have a responsibility to update their usage to prevent the perpetuation of incorrect terminology.

Right now I’m obsessed with crypts and mosses. I’m trying to get that professional mossy driftwood look in a forest scape.

[@sharirhariparsad5777]

My favorite beginner plants is definitely rosette plants like crypts and echinodorus. They come in all sizes and can give great impact to any aquascape

I started with a buce starter pack and staurogyne repens mixed with cryptocoryne lucens. All did well enough, though the staurogyne lost quite a few leaves at first. I'd highly recommend buce as a starting plant. Little to no melt, slow growing to keep the same look and position, no CO2 needed, and lighting can be any $20 aquarium plant light. Excellent.

Great info for a newbie to live plants!

Glad it was helpful!

[@barbararando1168]

Super informative

[@gourabsarkar837]

My Favorite beginner plants are Any species of Cryptocoryne & Anubias. I don't use Co2 and i also don't use soil, i discovered crypt can survive and live in fine sand. I love Moss too, but i get Algae issue with moss and i don't enjoy watching my Moss getting covered with algae, that's why i have to sacrifice Moss.

Useful Video with lots of info

This is great! Thanks!!

My fav is Anubias. It would be Buce, but apparently Buce is not compatible with my hard, high pH water. Anubias is able to adjust, as are Crypts and Vals. Buce, slowly over the course of a year, dies back for me.

Great info thank you so much for this video

[@kamilkasperek5286]

Great video!

I would have to go with Java Fern and crypt lutea, they have been awesome in my tanks and adapted very fast.

[@echoesvayne9790]

Crypt melt and pond snails are how I cycle new tanks lol

[@rupinnair2225]

I always thought 🤔 that the bucrle plant logo was inspired by bucephylandra sp.skeleton

[@beginningofthend]

Great video! Any suggestions for your favorite crypt species? We’ve tried a few over the years and definitely enjoy them and have a new scape plan starting soon.

[@BucePlant]

Wendtii green or brown are great classics! Balansae and retrospiralis are great long thin ones as well.

[@beginningofthend]

@@BucePlant awesome! Thanks for the reply! Hope to see some more videos soon 😊

[@BucePlant]

@@beginningofthend More videos coming within the next month or so. Stay tuned! 👍

[@northwestlife2794]

What is the best type of water to use when you do water changes? Can you let tap water sit for 24 hrs. So the chlorine can dissipate?

[@BucePlant]

[@Constantine_Cvl8]

Hey just a heads up, you got some "adult content" comment bots on here, you might want to block them because they can be a nuisance.

[@BucePlant]

@@Constantine_Cvl8 Yikes. Thank you for the heads up, went ahead and reported it.

[@justink256]

Hey. Can you do a video on the best plants that can work with bettas. I’m looking to do a planted c02 tank but i know bettas are sensitive so I’d need a group that needs low c02 but can tolerate the beta temperature

[@BucePlant]

Hey there, we'll add this to our content list! In the meantime, plants like Java Fern, Anubias, and Bucephalandra will work great in a betta tank.

[@richardpainter9325]

What are the grass looking plants

[@BucePlant]
