    Can anyone help me identify this plant for me? It's a bulb type but have no idea what the name is. If you need a better picture let me know. Didn't take a close up of the bottom since there's some anubias right in front and it might be hard to distinguish from each other.



    It was about 6 inches in height when I first placed it in my tank and two days later, it's already growing out of the tank! Today, another new leaf is starting to grow and it's already near the top of the water level as well.



    Thanks,
    Toshi

    Hi 3es,
    Could be the Echinodorus Bleheri. Common name: Broad leaf Amazon sword. It grows to about 50cm in height. Let's hear what the experts say
    Something about the water & the fishes that calms me down.

    can show the whole plant please. Echinodorus do not normally have "bulb".
    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.

    Okay, I took the whole plant out since I did a little rescaping and took a photo of the complete plant.
