Bamboo experts needed!

I bought this plant that resembles 'lucky bamboo' but it is a lot darker green and also has white stripes through it. I was real scared after reading that lucky bamboo leaves will rot underwater, but it's even growing new leaves. The place i bought it from had multiple stocks, some fully submerged and some not.....well after about a month ALL of the plants out of the water dried up and died...i was VERY shocked! I have no idea what type of bamboo i have, but it's very similiar to your avg lucky bamboo....it does have thicker leaves.....


anyone else have this bamboo..? I'll get some pics up.

its a Sandriana plant (they come with white or yellow stripes), i had one once, but the light wasn't good enough... the ones that dried up out of the water had somethin else wrong with them, they are like anubias and grow in or out of water...
