    I guess you got these from Teos?

    A wild guess :

    Crypt 1 - Cryptocoryne nurii,
    Crypt 2 - Cryptocoryne griffithii

    Other than certain cryptocoryne sp with unique appearance, most of the rest tend to look alike. Try them emerse and see if you can get them to flower. The inflorescene is a better way to identify cryptocorynes.

    The 1 st one like what lorba said is a C Nurri. You can compared it with the pics from eric_clee. I got the other one from Teo's as well as I found it pretty special. I am hoping it to be a C Griffiti as I was told it was plucked from the rivers in Malaysia. Teo's people call it "longkang cao"(drain grass) but I think it is a hidden gem. The 2nd crypt rots very easily, pls avoid shifting it as I lost mine after shifting it twice. So Vincent, did you get the C Tokinesis while you were at Teo's. It's a very unique and attractive plant in my opinion.

    Cheers!

    Hey Kadios,

    Thanks for the insight.

    I did get the Tokinensis while at Teos. As for the graffiti, mine is starting to sprout new leaves. I hope it is a good sign.

    Cheers

    Hi,

    Can someone tell me how tall and wide the 2 plants will grow? I just got some from Vincent and am still not sure as to where to place them. Haven't been able to get much info off the net.
