i'm a newbie to aquarium plants. i had these plants in my 55gal tank, but some of the fishes starting having ich. so i put to pull the plants out and put them in my quarantine 20gal tank. i'm hoping the leaves will regrow, since they're pretty chewed up by the goldfishes. for the past few days, i notice some new regrowth. are my plants sprouting?? do i need to do anything?

They certainly are sprouting. From what I have seen on another site, the stems with the new plants will eventually bend down and take root in the gravel. It's this plant's way of reproducing. Each cluster of leaves on those stems is a new sword plant. I may not be correct, the website didn't say exactly. Keep an eye on them to make sure they do not get stuck on the filter intake. I found the information on a site called Plant Geek.net. I think I found it somewhere here on Koko's. The link is below

BR's right and you can also cut them at the stem (where the new sprouts are making sure they've developed new roots) and replant them. If you want them to grow nice and big, you can get a product like Seachem's Flourish which supplies them with all the nutrients they need

thanks guys! i've been feeding them seachem flourish iron and now i'm trying tetra florapride as sugguested by BigRedandBlindWillie. i recently added the hagen's CO2 Natural Plant System and it seems to be working great. i'll cut the new sprouts from the stem and replant them today. thanks!!!

Baby amazons!!! When I bought my amazon it had four babies on the shoot. I have a small tank and the shoot didn't bend over..it just kept trying to grow above the surface. I cut them off and now I have five

If its not too late, try to let the shoot grow as much as you can before you cut them off. You could grow 5-7 babies on each shoot.

Also...do you have flowery looking buds? I had those buds on mine and I think they may have flowered if I let them go above the surface but I'm not sure.

TIME TO PROPOGATE! pull them puppies off before they become food for your fish. put them in a seperate tank if you can, and plant them asap! soon enough you will be selling em! i would also reccomend you get some type of algae eater to control the algae growth on your plants. that algae growing on them could starve the amazons from the light, but lol, looks like they are doing just fine now!
