Hi! New to Planta, but thought I would share my favorite new hobby— propagating pothos in my 55 gallon aquarium! I was struggling to keep the nitrate levels down in the tank, and read that growing plants like pothos in the water can help significantly— and it has!!! Took a little scrap wood, drilled some holes, stained/sealed/waterproofed, and now I have my favorite feature in my house! All of these were cuttings from my existing pothos plants that I rooted directly in the tank (the one in the copper glass had a super wonky stem, so I’m rooting her in there to help the stem straighten a bit before putting her in the tank!). The 10 gallon tank also got a little corner pothos. The plants help purify the water and cut down on water changes, plus they give the fish a more interesting environment! 🎉🎉🎉

Nice!! Years ago I had a 60 gallon aquarium and thought it might be nice to add guppies and platys. That was a mistake! They overpopulated so quickly! Pothos saved my tank, it really did. The pothos growing out of it grew leave them size of plates too. It was fantastic

I didn’t think I had any pictures left on my phone but I found one! Yours are going to look so cool with the marble pothos 🤩
