    Okay, I hope this is in the right place…

    Anyway, this week my fiancé got me a aquarium book, as Vis suggested, so that the LFS don’t sell me pond plants again….

    This is the book I got from CNA, but wow, it doesn’t have all the species. How does one keep up with them all? The book has a few aquarium plants, but also not a lot, so my last Q is, does anyone have a certain book on Aquarium plants, a name, or a pic, so that I can make contact with CNA to see if they have it??

    Thanks

    Also likes to float very good for baby guppies to hide in.

    It's known as Limniphila sessiliflora, very easy to grow requiring low light.

    It is also blacklisted. So don't ask me for any. (And yes, it most definitely SHOULD be blacklisted... it grows worse than a weed!)
