    I finally managed to borrow a digicam from my friend to snap pics of my tank. [] [] all comments welcome!! Pls go to my link below in my signature. the pics are all in a folder called "Planted Tank (Present)" The tank's a 2ft tank, measuring 60X45X30cm.

    The moss on the wall in one of the pics was not planted by me, somehow it found a spot on the bare wall and started growing.[:0]





    And can anyone pls help me identify the unknown plant?[] []

    hihi,

    The imagestation link doesn't work. Your sig link goes to the yahoo site, and all are your old pictures.

    Anyway, I cut/paste the address from your revision and had a look...
    you have E. tenellus, Crinium calamistratum, Cryptocoryne balansae, red lotus, Toina sp, Mayaca fluviatilis, Ceratophyllum demersum, Hyrophila lacustris, more crypt which cannot see clearly... so which plant are you talking about?

    ooops sorry, the yahoo photo album was set to private by default, pls try again! its in a folder called "planted tank (present)" in the main page.

    yup the stunted echin looking plant is the unknown plant. I"ve tried another echin plants and they grow well, but had this plant for quite a while and it has always remained this size tho it still sprouts new leaves. the edges of the leaves are wavy, really wonder what plant this is!

    The pics are also here:

    Yup, you unknown plant looks like a stunted E. oriental... you probably need good Co2 and nutrients (check your NO3) to bring it back to glory.

    Can also try a small 1cm or 2cm portion of Horti or Jobe plant stick at its base. Echinodorus are heavy root feeders.

    i would also recommend more space for it to fully develop

    that's strange, I had a rose once (at the same time with the unknown plant) and it got too big that I had to remove it! so can't be lack of nutrients?
