Anyone know where I can purchase mangrove pods from, and any good reading or some tips to keep them alive. I have a 27G fuge that has about 6 inches of reef mud and is in a window sill (cheato grows like warts in a swimming pool).

Just did this, I think I'm getting 21 in the mail for a fairly good price. As I wont need 21 anyone want some cheap Mangroves once they get here?

Let me know what they look like when you get them... how long of a wait is it? I am thinking of tearing down my 90g acclimation tank when the last fish I add is done QT in the next two months. I saw some beautiful pictures in my Corals book with mangroves growing in a tank... cheato is pretty ugly.

I'm not sure how large they are going to be, probably 5-6 inches. Il grab you photos when they arrive in the next week.

I'll take some if you have extras. Or could you PM me the seller's EBay name? I'd also like a few as it seems like you have quite the interest already.

Catherine, if you have to purchase more than you need, I would be willing to split an order with you.

Ok maybe Im just a little wet behind the ears, but what happens when your mangrove gets to be the size of a tree... These things get massive dont they? Wont it be sticking out the top of your tank? Im confused at how someone would keep these. Can someone help explain?

Works for me! I'll look around and see what is available and let you know.

**Edit**

I found some options, but I'm waiting on shipping quotes. I'll make a new thread about this.
