# \*UPDATE!!! When you are plant obsessed and you go to your garden shop…

\*UPDATE!!!

When you are plant obsessed and you go to your garden shop for leca… 😅😅😅she’s so beautiful! I hate that she’s going to have to live outside but her size! 😍😍😍

Soooo… she isn’t going to live outside after all. She will live in my new 45 gallon tank. Currently she’s all washed up and in LECA to acclimate white I get the components needed to get the tank plant ready. But it has been decided!!

She’s currently acclimating to water culture in LECA. The peace lily will be her other substantial emerged tank mate as well as some purple waffle and Micans philodendron. I’m also considering emersion growing some three kings syngonium… 🤷‍♀️
