I think you are onto something with ulvaceus. I googled and it looks just like mine! Thank you! may have to get a couple more of these.

I got it in a low light assortment bundle from aquariumplants.com. About half were labeled but the other half are a guessing game.

Hi everyone, I recently got a really cool looking plant and I have no idea what it is. It grows from a bulb and has basically grown this size in a matter of days. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Hopefully they will have a better chance to "shine" once they get into the main tank!

Here are a couple pics! Not the best since they move fast. Like I said, the pics don't do them justice since it is when the light hits them at the right angle that they sparkle!

I have a few assassin snails that I bought after a pond snail outbreak. At first I thought they were worthless but after a couple weeks the only thing left of the pond snails were a thin layer of empty shells.

I got a small group of seven to start and they are gorgeous. Pictures just don't do them justice. They are hanging out in the quarantine tank for another week or so. I will try to post pics!

Hi everyone! I am looking into getting a group of diamond tetras for my 36 gallon. I saw them at the LFS and was quite taken with them. Looking for some insight/tips in caring for them specifically. Do their "sparkles" shine better under particular light? If you have pics, please share!

Thank you for the tip!

No, I don't believe so. I have only ever fed out frozen blood worms. They are dark in color, about 2 inches when they are fully stretched out. They pop up above the gravel at feeding time and then disappear again. Like I said, they don't seem to be bothering the fish, but I do have some...

Hi there! Does anyone have any idea what these are? I am guessing some sort of worm or leech but not sure. They have taken over my substrate! Haven't seen any on my actual fish. Just wondered. Thanks!
