silly question: onion plants

[gd007]

Are the aquatic onion plants they sell at the aquarium the same onion plants that grow wild (as weeds) in my garden? They sure look the same and it would save me a few bucks....

Not sure - you could try one in a bucket?

No they are not the same. I'm pretty sure that aquarium onion plants are poisonous, which would explain why people have success with fish not eating them.

Just wanted to say thanks to those that have been helping me. I am very excited to share that my first group of fish should arrive today (from thatfishplace.com). I purchased the 5 Boesemani Raindows and the 6 Panda Corys.
