Water Lettuce - pics

[Raskolnikov]

There's no 'show your plants' thread, so far as I know, but I wanted to share a couple of photos of my new plants. I received my Water Lettuce less than a week ago, and all of the original plants have already sent out new plantlets. I think that it's gorgeous, and I'm glad that I decided to try it out.

I'd definately reccommend this plant. It looks good, imo, and the root system provides an excellent area for the fish to hide out in.

Looks good, I love water lettuce. You missed it from the best angle though, from below so you can see the roots!

This picture is pretty blurry but I like the angle. Water lettuce and cardinal tetras

We aren't allowed to keep water lettuce or water hyacinth down here. Water traffic nuisance or something.

Thanks.
You're quite right, Captain. The roots form a stunning visual as well.

Mark, the majority of my fauna is illegal to keep in Texas as well. Quite a few regulations you have down there.

OW! I think I poked my eye on those roots!!! Can you back it up a bit Rask?
I want to see them in the tank, not see them from within the tank

Do shrimp like 'em?

They are nice pics and nice plants!
