So I took a homework break and tinkered around with my ten gallon a bit. I trimmed some plants, fiddled with the filter output (finally got that slowed down) and while I was at it I grabbed my coffeefolia plant out b/c the sting algae was taking over it. I set it down beside the tank then went for water and topped off the tank, gave Ruby and Max their blood worms and guilt drove me back to homework at that point.
That was about two and a half hours ago... did you notice the mistake I made? Anyway I finished my homework, logged off fishlore, and was walking to my room to go to bed. I stopped and turned off the lights on the
betta tanks in the living room (two are short a timer atm) and then I was just about to lie down... when I remember the Coffeefolia... So 2.5 hrs of sitting beside my ten gal on a piece of plywood... and it's only kinda crispy...

I didn't want to put it back in the ten b/c I still have that algae on it so I dropped it in one of the empty 2.5's (there's a snail keeping the water cycled) so I'll grab and pick and let you guys know if there's any sign of life to it in the morning...
I'll try to think of it as an... experiment...
(really hoping for the best because it's one of my favorite plants)
