    It doesn't look like one but was told it is a crypt... Any idea what the plant is?





    This does not look like a typical crypt crown...


    How, boys and girls?

    Thanks...

    Justikanz,
    where did you get this plant from?
    This is the same 'crypt' which I have binned away after my shrimps went crazy after planting them.

    seems like a restrospiralis or albida.

    hmm..one of the shoots looks like restrospiralis, on the other hand it also looks like the 'china' balansae Teo brought in..
    Something about the water & the fishes that calms me down.

    Lorba, Mike, so it is a crypt?

    Chyrl, I got the plant from Fu Wo.

    Terence, I will try to take a better/clearer pic of the leave tonight...

    The plant is now residing in my temporary paludarium with 5 newts and 1 frog... I definitely want to find out more about it and do not want it to kill that tank's inhabitants! op:

    Thanks, again...

    Looks like C.balansae to me with the slightly wavy leaves.
    See if it grows tall to confirm.

    seems like C. albida.. which is closely related to C. balansae (by rights C. crispatula var. balansae).
