Hi,

Anyone know the ID of this stem plant? It has feather-like leaves with tear-drop pellets attached. IMO not very demanding and fast growing plant. I have not seen it in any LFS till now.

I am selling it at $3 per stalk (due to the high initial cost). Collection place at Clementi or Jurong. Interested party pls PM.

Thank you.

[clay]

it is a carnivorous plant that will quickly take over like algae.

wow!carnivorous!scary!

So far I have not seen any adverse effect having this plant to my tank. No fishes are harmed. From books, its bladder like organs catch only plankton.

I dun really agreed with your statement of "quickly taking over algae" just because its a fast growing plant. Can you elaborate more?

I think clay is referring to another bladderwort species which doesn't have proper leaves (just bladders) and often appears in tanks and spreads like wildfire..... the species you have will do fine as a floating plant and won't harm anything other than amoeba.
