    Hi fellows,

    I am on the lookout for some stem plants for my upcoming tank, & came across the following:

    Set 1
    01102011268.jpg

    Set 2
    01102011269.jpg

    Set 3
    01102011270.jpg

    I will be very appreciative if any of you can provide some identification of the species above (& cautionary tales, if any). So far, the only thing I've caught wind of, is that red-leafed/red-stemmed plants require iron additives to maintain their "reddness".

    Thank you.

    I am also very curious to find out what that middle plant in your top photo is, as I just got 1 from Seaview today.

    the left plant in your set 2 is Limnophila hippuroides, i've got them in my early stage of planting, well...used sand and it didn't survived.

    set 2 : Plants on the right looks like a Selaginella sp. Probably a Selaginella erythropus?
    set 3 : Not a very clear photo, perhaps some sorta lotus?
    It's simple...but no one said it will be easy
