Excellent! Great job! I'm just getting into planted tanks, my first is a 5g betta tanks. So far I have 4 java ferns and some anacharis floating in it. Horwort is on order and should be here this coming week! Fun!

Nice job! Your plants look lovely! Nice fish too!

no idea, sorry. have you tried searching for a plan ID tool? there are some i've seen where you can enter details of leaves, stems, roots, etc and it can give you an estimation on ID.

i want some though, it's very pretty!

Thanks all for the complaments!

Just wondering why the water is so low?

the water actually isnt that low, but I did a water change right before I added the plants that tank is only 16 inches at the front and 14 at the back (bow front type eclipse) 8)
