Hi,

From the relatively long-narrow pale green leaves with reddish underside. I think it looks more like eusteralis stellata.

Hi guys,

I do have 2 types of eusteralis stellata in my tank, but this plant is much bigger then eusteralis stellata. It is a fast grower with the tip orangy redish in colour. I think it is more likely to be ammania gracilis.

Thank you.

Hey AK,

where did you get this plant from ? me interested...

[Alan Koh]

Hi gchoo,

Nice to see you here, how's the marbled hatchets doing??

Understood..ed, DD and AG for you when they are ready for trimming ...
but now I'm having some complication (my mistake) in my tank, care to wait abit longer till I get over with this complication. If not you can get this plants at Pet Safari or Havelock 22 or Taiwan Shop, quite common actually.

Thanks.

AK,

the hatchets are doing fine, thanks! grown abit already...

I prefer to wait for your specimens (DD and AG)... yours is definately in peak condition !!

Merry Christmas!

It's Ammania gracilis. Used to have them. Bought from Ah Pek at $1 a pot when he was still at FF Road.

I have got a similar plant which I got from Ah Pek as well. They don't grow as compact as Alan's. Are they the same?





Lately I had increased the light level and found they grew redder and the leaves near the top of water spreaded longer. But the distance between leaf nodes are further than the Ammania gracilis.

i can't tell, dennis
yours don't look like classic amania
they look more like the emersed forms to me

I believe its the Nesaea crassicaulis ...
