Any advice on moving an established large pothos vine that has until now just been allowed to be wild and free? Her stem is thicker than my thumb and a bit loopy as she is growing out of one tank up a rack across a 2 ft gap dropped roots in another tank then grew into the window between them and may or may not be looped around a curtain rod 😳 I know I should have trained her better but she is a wild child and I love her.
BACKSTORY
I had several Golden Pothos (I got them originally as one potted plant on discount 3-ish years ago) growing out of my fish tanks.I am desperately trying to claw my way back from MTS (multi-tank syndrome 😀- 3 feeder goldfish led to an obsession – no worries about the goldfish they went to a lovely pond and now I have a plethora of smaller fish) – that being said I had to chop and prop my pothos and philodendron (which I am still mad at myself over because I didn’t realize until I chopped poor Phil that he was getting ready to BLOOM) which led to 80+ pothos cuttings – I have managed to rehome about 20 at this point and lost 3 to rot (is there a MPS – multi-pothos syndrome lol)- I now have them short enough to start moving tanks around -planning to get a 60 gallon and combine a few – however my biggest pothos vine I couldn’t bring myself to cut and was planning to just try to transfer her into the new tank but she is running out of window and I don’t think I will be able to move the largest tank without destroying her.

I don’t know why it ate my words…
