Re: [GSAS-Member] Mangrove plants

[matt kaufman <igotadose@hotmail.com>]

Be prepared to wait a *long* time for mangrove plants to grow in an aquarium. 
I've, *cough*, gotten some from outside my sister's boat dock in FL in the 
past, and they are the SLOOOOOWEST growing plants I've seen indoors. An inch a 
year. Maybe.
 
I don't have any now, nor am I going back to FL anytime soon :-( Plus as 
pointed out they're brackish, which makes for unusual water conditions to keep 
them - I had them with some brackish killies but eventually gave up.
