Plant ID?
Hey all,
I added an aquatic plant bulb to my betta fish's tank about a month and a half ago and to my pleasant surprise it grew!
I am curious about what kind of plant it is and what I will need to do to ensure that it keeps growing, an any ID that you guys can give me is really appreciated.
I've attached photos--sorry about how blurry they are, they were taken with my camera phone... The two brown blobs are the bulbs (I tried another one with no luck, I am going to remove it if nothing happens in the next couple days). Do I need to bury the bulb of the one that has started to grow??
Also, I've noticed a brown spec in my gravel (its in one of the photos), it looks like it has some brown bubbles in the spec... should I be worried about this? Since adding the plant, the gravel has started too look a bit green/brownish. Could this be algae? The tanks been going for 6 or 7 months with no algae. . .
Thanks in advance!!
