My photography can never be this nice.





What is the plant in the middle of the first picture?
Thanks.

chong yu... the picture is too blur to tell exactly..but from what i know.. this is a species of moss that you can find locally in the rivers....in Japan of course.. i could be wrong..but i am currently trying to grow some that i've gotten. Lets see if they turn out the same..

Hmmm so they should need cold water and a good current?

very cold... i found mine in waters that were around 5-15 degrees... while i was taking a swim this summer (i live in the mountains at 5000feet)...but not to say they can't survive in 22-25 degress.. because mine are doing well in 25 degrees right now.. lets see if they hold up.
