im not sure what the new plant is, but what are the tall ones that you have???

[Hebdizzle]

you plants seem to be in very good shape....

K S W I S S I have the same tall plants as his but they are fake ha.

[NJ Devils Fan]

Yea, the two on either end are fake, but the anacharis in the middle is real. I just cut them last week when they were half that size.

[K_S_W_I_S_S]

fake plants with real plants??? does anyone notice??? (i didnt)

[NJ Devils Fan]

Good, thats the key ;).

[nvision]

that's a pretty slick move. but then, it may go the other way and your live plants may be perceived as fake. :D

[andruboz]

is the big white tube the output of the co2 system?
or the return from the uv sterilyzer? are you running the uv thing 24/7? sorta sticks out. maybe you can find black tubing for it.

the aquarium is pretty awesome. it warms my heart to know that some youth in america can enjoy a big tank without thinking rtc or arrowanna, or any other typical tankbusting fare.

and i thought the light shining outside the tank is a little distracting but it probably isnt as noticeable to humans but the camera picks it up.

New plant. Can someone please tell me what it is?
Looks like an Underwater pot plant =)

[dbcb314]

what substrate is that?

[NJ Devils Fan]

andruboz: Yea, the white tubes are for the u.v. I usually push it up behind the lip of the filter so you don't see it, but it falls out all the time, so I just leave it. I will fix it a good way soon though. Yea, I keep the u.v. on 24/7.Yea, the light is distracting in pics but if you were here, you wouldn't notice it as much. Thanks for the compliments.


dbcb314: It's Onyx Sand made be SeaChem.

Nice tank dont know nothing when it comes to plants but nice tank I especially like that flooded blown up Bug hahaha you need to flip and spin it though.

[NJ Devils Fan]

I'm confused :confused:

I think the plant is a MoneyWort. They are good hardy plants. I did find out FlagFish like to eat on them..

[ChilDawg]

At least one of those looks to be a Bandit Cory (C. metae) rather than the Bronze Cory (C. aeneus).

[TomFromStLouis]

My vote for the new plant is Lysimachia nummulariua 'aurea' aka yellow lysimachia aka Lloydelia. You should notice some white rootlets coming out form below a leaf soon. Nice plant. Check out Tropica's site for more on this and other species:

[NJ Devils Fan]

No Chil, they are bronze cories. Check outPlanet Catfish (http://www.planetcatfish.com).

Thanks Tom, it is that. I see those roots too.

[ChilDawg]

I guess I saw a band over the eye of the leftmost one, but you have a better view of your fish, so I will defer to you then.

[GEV83]

Devil I was talking about the car it looks like a bug you know the cars made in germany. Yeah oooooooooh aaaaaaaaaah.

[NJ Devils Fan]

What car are you talking about?

[GEV83]

This Car

[GEV83]

Here click to see the pic I want you to see devil this is how the car chould be. Had to shrink it said was to big.

[Sumpin'fishy]

The car he's talking about is the ornamental smacked-up car you have in your aquarium in the left front corner. Had it so long you don't notice it anymore?:p

edit: DOH!.....just noticed a page two......duh!

[NJ Devils Fan]

Oh, I get ya now.

[superstein61]

looking good NJ - but I still can't get over how you buy plants without knowing what they are.

Its hard to tell from a picture, but another possibility for that plant is Cardamine

[NJ Devils Fan]

I buy them because no one at the store knows what they are. So instead of taking over a week to buy a plant, I just buy it and then ask the name here, and get some info.

[Mr.Jingles]

i second moneywort aka pennywort

[NJ Devils Fan]

I checked on google for the moneywort and I got all pictures of a pond plant with yellow flowers.

[Pootspete]

Very nice pictures! Thanks for sharing!

[TomFromStLouis]

Sorry Superstein, but I also own some Cardamine and his plant is definitely not Cardamine. Cardamine has single larger round leaves coming from a more viney looking stem.

Pennywort is more simialr to cardamine. Bacopa might be a reasonable guess but having seen that at my lfs I still say he has Lysimachia aurea.

[superstein61]

Tom, you are probably right - I am not usually good with these picture IDs - If I can't see it in person, I usually guess wrong - LOL

[Matak]

Sharp NJ.
Is the black background just cardboard? It really defines and sharpens what's in the tank. If you remember, you gave me the advice to background my tank with cardboard. Real glad I did :)

[NJ Devils Fan]

Almost the same as cardboard, construction paper.

[beviking]

WOW! Nice pics! I love the CLEAN HOSES! Any more pics of your hoses?;) :p

I don't think it's bacopa. Penny(money)wort?

[NJ Devils Fan]

It took me such a long time to clean my hoses. ;)
