Pruning, and re-planting

[Dan the Moose]

hows it going, alright, i jsut put in some new plants, and a few of the leaves have some brown on the tips (large jungle val) should i cut off the brown area?

and my second question is, once the plants have established roots, and started growing more leaves, is it possible for me to take a bit of it, and replant it in sanother aquarium, or even in a nother spot in thie exsiting aquarium? and how would i do that??

It's okay to cut the brown tips off. Val propagates by runners, so if you see a runner (basically a new plant next to the old plant) pop up from the main plant, it's okay to cut that and replant once it reaches a couple of inches in height.

alright, what about with Swords, and Bannana plants?

Swords propagate by runners also. Not too sure on the banana plants, but I believe they flower and if fertilized will drop seeds. Someone else around these boards should know for sure.
