What is the green plant in the back left with the long, serpent like leaf strands? Store guy said it was an "onion like plant"... It definitely had an onion like bulb root formation.
There are also two pink plants. One "bushy", the other with leaves. Several stems of both. One along the back of the tank, the other through the middle. What are each of these called?
The store owner identified all of them, but I didn't have the opportunity to transcribe their egregiously long and complicated scientific names. These are medium or high light plants. I'll definitely have the lighting for them in the next couple days thanks to BML.
A high tech setup is also in my future, but will be dosing liquid carbon until I can afford a proper kit.
That being said, are there any ferts or nutrients I should supplement other than the typical to enhance their pink coloring? Extra iron, for instance?
My dosing regime: Flourish every two days, liquid carbon daily, Fe and K weekly. I have 20lb of organic soil under the black sand substrate, and will begin dosing DIY root tabs in 2.5-3 mo. Any other macro/micros I should pick up?
Other plants:
Echinodorus (Atlansberg)
Echinodorus (amazon sword)
A couple long leaf, unspecific crypts
Crypt undulata
Anubias
Java fern
Moneywort
Mini lily
