Noddy65 Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Bolbitus heudelotii The plants in pots look like Cryptocorynes to me.... Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristlenose2008 Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Mike is most likely 100% correct. What you have is one of two ferns. Bolbitus heudelotii or Indonesian Fern ( less likely) Bolbitis heteroclita or as one website suggested it was formerly known as Edanoya Difformis. The first one I have personally and typically grows slowly, likes co2 but does only marginally better. Likes low light, and makes no use of high light. Does quite well out of the water, with root/rhizome under water. Do not bury under gravel it will rot and die just like Anubias. The fish you have in the aquarium is most probably L201 Inspector Catfish. Damien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
