Crinum sp

Post by jp11biod »

I just have to brag on this plant. It is so old, I am not even sure what it is. I think it is a crinum species. This plant is upwards of 10 years old and just keeps on going and going. Right now, it has near 20 long leaves on it and they get 36" long. The tank is a 65 gallon US - 36"x 18" x 24" high. Every week a leaf or a chunk turns yellow and drop and the plant grows some new leaves. The farlowellas like to eat or rasp on the leaves and leave NO mess behind. Notice the farlowellas love to hang out on it. Best plant I have ever had!

I had a crinum once upon a time and saw the same phenomenal growth out of it.
Did you say “CATFISH!?” I’m in.
