Guess what I got in mail today!!!

alrighty then so here are the plants..

All came moist (not cold) in ziplock bags, some were dry since thats how the species is normally found in nature..

Dwarf HairGrass (2 orders) came as a big clump.. had to clean it for a while since it contained a good amount of dirt/soil w/e they used and some "seaweed" (cant describe it just look at 3rd pic down)

Gymnocoronis

Hydrocotyle leucocephala

Rotala Indica (sent wrong plant.. didnt order this.. unless this is Lobelia cardinalis)

Red Ludwigia

Valsineria Asiatica

Martii Sword

Anubias nana (looks very nice :grinyes

and unknown plants got free for ordering

And the final (not so final) results areeeee.........
Before

After..

Still not done though.. alot more of hairgrass to clean and plant.. and a whole bunch of "Rotala Indica" to plant. The corner filter is temporary, i just got new filter media for my aquaclear filter and its running gaining bacteria in my other tank

Overall im pretty happy with the purchase. The place i bought all this from is Queen-Nursery on Ebay. Whole batch cost me $30 ($2.99/plant) shipping included and returning customers get 10% off on their next purchase.. so who knows if i will need any more i would probably use this seller again.

Thank you for looking.:headbang2:

i cant wait until they get nice and full.. then slowly i can transfer some to my other tank and not worry if the silver $$ will eat them or not since i will know i will always have backup in the 10g..

with what fish/inverts can i stock it with? (no neon tetras sorry)

 

[Mgamer20o0]

i would make it a full invert tank.

your unknown plant right before the tank picture looks like your missing lobelia cardinalis. So you got the r. indica for free.

np.. check the weather locally and if its going to be near freezing ask them if they can supply you with a heat pack (when i asked they said they will start doing it for an extra fee..probably $1-2). i got mine and it was in the upper 40's so i was safe..
