    Hi Xema,

    Wonderful clear and bright pictures, you should put them in the Photo Gallery… look forward to seeing more of your aquatic photography.

    The wendtii tropica looks lovely, maybe I try that for my next project... Is it difficult, Xema? the plant or just like any other??
    Something about the water & the fishes that calms me down.

    I can't seem to see the pictures. Don't know why?

    Xema, when you redo a tank, do you just pull the crypts out and replant? Do you cut the roots/leaves, even though they are going into a similar environment. Mine's getting really crowded, all the clumps getting mixed up, hard to tell apart. Should replant soon.
    Regards

    I find wendtii tropica to be one of the, if not the toughest crypt I've grown. They don't seem to melt that easily compared to other wendtiis. I've grown them submersed and emersed. Can't manage to get the bullated look in my submersed ones though.
    Regards
