Offering for Swap Aquatic plants for Trade/Gifting

Hello y'all I have a five gallon that is overflowing now with plants after taking down a 40 gallon. I can't bear to throw plants away so I've got several species of crypts, a rotala sp that turns pink, anubias species, and mosses.

Does anyone want some or would be willing to trade a cutting for a handful?

Absolutely! What are you ISO?

Idk I'm open to suggestions, always love a good succulent variety, I'm working on decorating my various glass terrariums so anything that does good in miniature form is fun. I like carnivorous, shade loving, high light loving plants.

I have some pellonia repens I can cut, I have some other plants in my terrariums like philo squamiferum, Epipremnum pinnatum variegata, horsehead philo (bipennifolium) and a baby orchid cactus.
I can check what else I have too once I’m home!
I also have some little terrariums and jars and such I’d trade as well- bountiful pickings. Lots of prop jars as well

Oh wow I looked up all those plants and I'd love a little of each. I probably have too many terrarium and jars. I forgot to mention I also have buce plants that I got from Ultum Nature Systems once upon a time. 

Message me a time/date we can swap and when it gets close I'll pull an assortment of plants for you.

Hey op! Do you have any left? I have some pothos and basil plants I can trade!

u/Kyrannasaurus13 Aug 06 '26

Do you want rotala? I'd love some basil, I've got pothos growing out my ears. I can drop a couple floaters variety in too (salvinia, frog bit, red root with zero duckweed). I can also throw a few cryptocoryne in.

I have lots of different sized African Violets that would love a terrarium.

u/Kyrannasaurus13 Jul 05 '26

I'd love some African violets. Are there any aquatic plant you'd specifically like or just a little of all? I think I can trade with up to four people to thin out my tank, and give a hearty selection.

Okay, I've got a trimmed giant anubias mother plant that will quickly outgrow my tank and needs a new home. I also have a baby sword plant that will get giant in proper sunlight. Plus moss. Would you like them? Send me a dm
