Looks similar to the plant in this thread (http://www.aquaticquotient.com/forum...ad.php?t=21045) but I could be wrong.

Its not truly aquatic...

Nvm then shall see how it grows. Just got it today from a LFS in Thomson!

What was the price? Not truly aquatic? meaning?

**kemp** · 13th Jun 2006, 08:50

was the LFS owner able to provide any names or clues for it? Did u asked him?

**joydiv** · 16th Jun 2006, 22:34

Price wise was alright. The shopkeeper was not able to give any name except some chinese words which he muttered. Since it looks interesting I thought no harm trying.

It is still intact in my tank after 5 days. But I doubt it will last because there has been no growth.

Meaning the plant will not surive underwater long term.

Surprisingly, after six months, the plant has put out new growth. It was attack by BBA, but it is clearing now.

Here is a picture, perhaps, there is a possibility that it can be converted into an aquatic plant.

Hi

Thanks. Will try to grow some in another tank and see how it all goes. Has been growing it in a tank near direct morning sun with lots of CO2. Perhaps, its the sun?
