    If I guess it correctly, this pic is magnified many times. The plant is in fact about the size of moss. I believe killies.com mentioned about the plants before in their forum. I saw something similar at Bioplast. I believe he is selling it. Make a trip down and check it out. Should be available for sale.

    Cheers!

    Attachment 2371I guess this is the one you all are talking about:

    This picture is taken from Killies.com. The discussion can be found at http://www.killies.com/forum/viewtop...light=bioplast

    Yes, it is definitely very small in size as compared with the size of the yamato shrimp.

    I suggest jade "stars" would be a more appropriate name. "Lotus" implies a plant of bigger size

    that's not even a yamato, looks more like malayan. that's how small it is
    why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

    I don't think it is the same plant. Check out the shrimp in the background. This plant is bigger than the one in Bioplast.
