Any easy beginner carpet plant?

[gid]

tks bro.

i managed to find glosso at sam (marine parade), not too expensive.

the shop guy told me its glosso, but it looks quite differnet. the leaves are very small, thin and light green. They are unlike the darker and thicker leaves i see on the net. is this normal?

anyway im growing it in my 1 feet low tech, 16w T5, doing excel, dymax flora and dymax iron. I hope it carpets well.

If I manage to get some I'll be sure to pass some to you

Any idea where to get us fissiden around east side?

This is a pic of the glosso I just planted.

Am i doing this correctly?
Also, can confirm if this is indeed glosso? (the leaves looks smaller, thinner, and less green than the pics I see on the net)

Yup, that's glosso. Actually, next time you can try planting a lot deeper, i.e. so that the leaves are literally touching your substrate.

Anyone know how to plant the APP in and has picture of how it done? Haha want to know how to plant it before getting it

[blurless]

hi blurless,

sorry but i think your APP are screaming up for light, else it might not be APP.. :P
anyway squee provided a link to the all powerful Google link of the search result (after clicking to show pictures).. it's a wonderful way to search a plant after you have the name...

I checked the leaf structure and looked it at closely...I think it is APP. Mine doesn't crawl that well and the leaves are not as dense as what you have. Here is a pic of the same plant taken a few months back (on the right side of the photo):

Erm, I later after refill co2 help you google. Don't seem like app at all, more like other stem plants.

You try the full name, local name might not turn enough results. Maybe use "full name + lawn"

[blurless]

Ok, my plant might be HEMIANTHUS GLOMERATUS also (now I'm really confused). Just took some close-up photos to see if anyone here can ID it (White balance is causing the green to look different in all 3 photos).

Hi, think it might be likely Rotola... comparing Rotala Green/Rotala Rotundifolia/Heminathus micranthemoides (MH)
Hello stormhawk/shadow, need some of ya help....

Not easy to find at times. Did you try out seaview?

Haha that is what I tell them, ah pek plant I also show all the fish shop pic but they give me other plant hahaha hai~ so sad cause this plant so hard to find

[felix_fx2]

C328? If no then post a wtb instead. Wiser choice.

There is a alternate choice, seach fourm for old wts and check if they still have enough to spare.

IMHO, if you like the way app grows you can go for Staurogyne as it looks something near app. Mind the slower growth speed thou.
