Sorry, but hijacking this thread.

I was told that the roots of mangrove and bond tightly with the glass, and it might break the glass. Is that true?

Interesting topic....how do you get to Pulau Seletar? Do they still allow you to pick?

yoz chinmo... read up somewhere dat keeping mangroves is not an effective way to export nutrients. koz they grew too slow(=take in nutrients slow too), & does need daily spraying of freshwater on their leaves to rinse away the salt deposits. i collect mine from pulau hantu haha. if ur collecting pls take those pods with no roots or leaves sprouting as if they're kept in a diff salinity from the place where they're originally collected from, most prob they wun survive...
