    Yep. I cut all but 2 off of the plant because they were newer ones and had no daughter plants on them yet. I noticed this morning there's a new one beginning to grow on the one plant. I'm not sure if you have the same sword that I do but from looking at mine there was no other way to remove the daughter plants from the stalk other than cutting it.

    Yeah, I am pretty sure it is the same.... I actually bought it because it was like buying 10 plants for the price of 1 :)

    Thanks. I'm really beginning to like it myself.

    I also had to add my Koralia Nano to make up for the lack of flow my filter is creating. :confused:

    The fish store around here only have small pieces similar to what's in the tank already. :confused: I really wanted to get a nice piece that would span the length of the tank almost.

    YouTube changed some of their video settings and seems to have taken away their "View In High Quality" option. I've re-uploaded the video in HD so here it is. Click the little arrow on the bottom right and select "HD" to view the HD version.
