Chris,

I grow Cryptocoryne undulata, parva and petchii (i think) using this method:

viewtopic.php?f=56&t=6215

They are all thriving. I don`t think tropica do my variant of undulata any more, just the broad leaf version.

All my Crypts are growing, although nothing like TGM. My plants were taken out of my 240l when I stripped it down, and put straight in to the propagator. One or two leaves died off but, on the whole, the plants took to it like a fish out of water. The C undulata seems to be doing best out of the three, and I have just planted some of it up in a new 120l scape, without any melting.

Dave.
