What Is This Hitchhiking Plant?

[Amanda92]

This plant came attached to one of the plants I bought and I don't know what it is but it grows really well and I like it and I'd like to put some in my 55 gallon but I wanna know what it is first so I can buy more.Thanks!

Looks like water wisteria

Agree, it looks like water wisteria to me too. Dolfan can definitively ID it for you.

Cool. That was fast. Do I have to buy another plant or do you think I could clip some off this one and grow more in my 55?

 

[skix]

I would clip and grow unless you need more plants NOW. You already noted this, but they grow fast.

 

[Amanda92]

Alright I'll do that. It does grow wicked fast. It was just a little sprout stuck to another plant when I got it and now its the biggest plant in the tank. I just wanted to make sure it was ok to take a piece from this one because it didn't want to accidentally kill my and the fishes favorite plant

You can just propagate one of the stems or even by the leaves.

 

[Amanda92]

So I don't need the roots?

 

[skix]

Just clip off a portion and it'll grow

Awesome thank you!
