tracey2775 Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 I have a beautiful Egeria Densa (anacharis) plant in my fish tank and its completely starting to take over the place. I dont want to remove it as the fish love to nibble on it and swim through it. Would i kill it if i cut it down shorter and will it regrow?

Caryl Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 Egeria densa is a noxious weed over here :lol: It reproduces by breakaway branches. It will not kill it if you chop it off, nor will it stop it growing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 Caryl's right on. Its just a stem plant so you can chop it up no problem. If you want to keep the best look you're best to pull the whole plant out, chop off the top parts of the plant and replant them. Thow the bottom part away. The newer growth always looks the best.
