View Full Version : Check out my totally amateur pics...please be merciful!
Okay, I've been playing with my new digital camera and this cool website I found: picturetrail.com. Check out my pics! You can see my new HUGE SAEs! And also, can anyone id the grass like plant I have in the center foreground? They weren't labelled in the store and since the kid didn't know what they were, he sold them to me for $1 a bunch! I figured they were maybe some sort of chain sword or maybe lileaopasis (SP?). Either way, $1 was worth a try. They've grown in quite nicely -- was just wondering what they were!
Thanks!
FIXED LINK!

The pics look good. :) The grass in the front looks like what I have in mine. It's called Dwarf Sagittaria. That would be my guess. I could be wrong.

Yep, that looks like swarf sag. in the foreground. And the tank looks really nice tfish. Good job with the photography.

What are those fish that are in one of the pictures, that look like cardinals, but have really high dorsal fins?
Len
Len--I'm not sure which fish you are asking about, so I'll just give you a run down of all the fish in the tank...
congo tetras -- ~2" blue, silverish, with yellow/orange stripe
glass bloodfin tetras -- ~1" see through, silverish with red fins and tail
long fin blue danios
ottos
SAEs
white mollies and guppy and my friend's request
Hope this helps!
Must be the danios.....very pretty.

I have both dwarf sag and lileaopasis in my tank. The dwarf sag has a thicker blade compared to the lileaopasis. Can't really tell from your pics the blade width

It's lookin' good! :)
OH!! Didn't think about it being dwarf sag! Is that safe to have as a foreground plant? I've read that they can, in some circumstances, grow to be very tall, in which cases it is transplanted to the background. I hope I do not have to do that. It is growing in perfectly in the foreground. That is as tall as I want it. Does anyone have any experience with that happening?
Thanks to all for the comments! I am having lots of fun playing with my new camera and making pics available on the web!
I also love seeing pics! Does anyone have any cool pics of some planted 10 gallons? I just got two that I want to do some experimenting with. Looking for some inspiration...:D

WOW!! So much cleaner looking then my 55Gallon, I'll be posting pics of mine as soon as my digital camera arrives.
Kinda looks similar to mine with the eheim intake tube and DIY Co2 Diffuser on the right :P

A little insight on "dwarf Sag". . . At one point I purchased about fifty of these plants for foreground in a 55g. When I tore the tank dow a few years ago. they were in various stages of height, some staying small and remaining in the fore, some growing a little bigger and transplanted to mid, and some getting as tall as the tank and moved to the back. . . all decendents of those original fifty. . ."go figure"
